We enjoyed San Sebastián but the hotel was over priced for 4 star. We then spent time in Bilbao in a 5 star hotel which
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Choice for The breakfast was not very good. Some staff were pleasant and helpful but others were not. The reception was just a table with a lap top resembling more a coffee shop than a hotel and some of the team didn't acknowledge you.

Great location. Super helpful staff.

Cons:

Very slow wifi (less than 5mb/s), and also paper thin walls. Could hear neighbors talking, snoring, coughing.

Delivered a comfortable 2 night stay.
Pros:

Room was comfortable, minimalist ie nothing on the walls. All white. Tasteful furnishing. Nice bathroom. Location is fine for stuff you need to do. Unfussy hotel all round and nice relaxed restaurant with confident staff.

Cons:

Would be nice to have a way to make a cuppa with some fresh milk. Shower didnt live up to expectations. Would have traded the electric butt washing for a bit of shower water pressure. Top floor room has no view to speak of but does have a ceiling velux. It wasn't too sunny for us so no comment on how that shapes up if its 35+ outside. The Hotel restaurant dinner was very good. I think the best Sole we have eaten. Usb port by the bed was loose and not working. Forgot to mention. Price a little high perhaps but nice place to stay.
