Steer clear of this property - what you book is not what you get…
Pros:

Location
Street parking

Cons:

I booked an apartment with a sea view and when we arrived they said they had none available even though it was advertised as available.
The apartment was very poorly equipped, three sets of cutlery for the number of people staying so no spare, odd assortment of water glasses, no wine glasses, dirty pans that needed washing before use and a hole where the hob extractor should have been.
The beds are incredibly hard and uncomfortable.
The outdoor furniture is rusty and the blind pulley broke on first use.
I addressed this with the accommodation and the receptionist was incredibly rude and nothing happened other than providing a kettle.
I raised this with Booking.com with accompanying photos and they agreed with me that it was not up to the standard I booked and should have done expected.
When they raised this with the property, they still refused to provide even a part refund.
I am a very regular traveller and to demonstrate that this is a genuine review, the other apartments on this trip in Bilbao and San Sebastián were true to their description and I gave them very high reviews.

Perfect place to enjoy your vacation
Pros:

The property is clean, at a central location, easy to find, close to public transport, restaurants and a supermarket and most importantly 5 minutes away from an amazing beach! The apartment had everything you may need for an enjoyable stay and view was very nice to catch a sunrise. The breakfast was pretty nice too.

Hemos estado en el fin de semana más caluroso y nos tocó una habitación de la quinta planta.! Por la noche fue un poco caluroso.! Quizá a futuro necesiten aire acondicionado.!

Wir fanden es klasse! Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!
Pros:

Apartment mit Meerblick, waren für 3 Wochen im Februar/März da, etwas in die Jahre gekommen, die Küche könnte etwas sauberer sein, nicht tragisch, aber es gab alles was man braucht.
Service und Personal hervorragend, super zuvorkommend, Heizung hat prima funktioniert, Betten sehr gut, großartige Dusche, schöner Blick, alles was man braucht in unmittelbarer Nähe, Supermarkt, Bushaltestelle, Meer. Wir würden immer wiederkommen.

Cons:

Wir würden immer wiederkommen.
