Pros:

L'emplacement est idéal

Cons:

Le rapport qualité prix n'est pas au rendez-vous. Tarif excessif pour un hôtel 1 étoile, dont les prestations sont très limitées et qui est globalement assez vieillot

Location!
Pros:

LOCATION LOCATION. That’s what you’re booking here and it delivered. We legit decided to spend a night in just to be able to sit at our balcony and people stare.

Cons:

No AC though they do provide a fan. The shampoo is a body wash/shampoo so maybe bring your own stuff if you’re particular.

Si presenta come un Hotel '70 con il confort e le difficoltà di quegli anni.

I would stay here again, the lady who ran the hotel made it feel so homely. She was very welcoming.
Pros:

This place is in a perfect location, so central. The lady who ran the hotel is lovely. So kind and helpful. It was a very traditional Spanish hotel, we had a nice one night stay there before we flew home. Very near to the old town and the shopping district.

Cons:

No air con, but fans were provided so it was manageable!

Pros:

L’emplacement parfait , possible de faire l’essentiel des visites à pied. Et le personnel très agréable.

Cons:

Un samedi soir , le bruit extérieur ( bar sous les fenêtres, impossible de dormir jusqu’à 4 heures du matin) et intérieur (on entend les voisins comme s’ils étaient à côté). En semaine c’est peut être plus calme.

Pessimo! Purtroppo non avevo scelta per una sola notte ma far pagare una struttura simile come un 3 stelle e mettere fot
Pros:

Solo la posizione

Cons:

Le foto su Booking sono FALSE e quindi INGANNEVOLI!
rapporto qualità prezzo vergognoso.
La struttura è estremamente vecchia , mobilio, pavimenti,porte, muri , serrande: tutto vecchissimo, spazi angusti e privi di aria condizionata!! Odore di vecchio e pareti inesistenti quindi si sente qualsiasi rumore.

Bilbao meravigliosa e l’hotel Ripa in posizione strategica per sentirsi subito a casa in città!
Pros:

Posizione eccezionale sia per raggiungere i diversi luoghi di attrazione della città, sia per la vista magnifica sul fiume. Esci e sei lì con la brezza e la gioventù locale che fa l’aperitivo sul fiume.
Letto alla francese molto comodo e bagno abbastanza spazioso con doccia.

Cons:

Rumorose le camere, si sentono sciacquoni e rubinetti delle camere adiacenti.
Vista su un triste cavedio la stanza singola. La vista bella si ha dalla zona comune.
