Fine for an overnight stay, but not a place to spend time.
Pros:

The hotel is in a convenient location, within walking distance of downtown.

Cons:

The room was pretty basic and could have been cleaner. The main drawbacks were mold in the bathroom and poor cleanliness. The bathroom outlet only worked when the light was on, making it difficult to charge toothbrushes overnight. The room window could only be opened by pulling the curtains to the sides. Overall, the hotel may be okay for a short stay, but these issues affected the experience.

Cons:

I bagni erano sprovvisti di detergenti per persona, solo dopo la nostra dimostranza hanno provveduto a rifornirli! La camera non era dotata neanche di spazzolino netta wc, di tappetino per uscire dalla doccia, di asciugacapelli che però ne è stato dato uno in prestito dalla reception! Mancante anche asciugamani per bidet

Pros:

Konumu iyi.

Cons:

Konumu haricinde ücret / performans çok kötü. Odada klima çalışmıyor. Sorduğumda ise arızalı dediler. Banyodan yıkanma sonrası dışarı taşan su halıları çok kötü yapmış Odanın içi nem kokuyordu. Odamızın değişmesini istediğimde oda olmadığını söylediler.

O alojamento em Bilbao é caro, mas a escolha por um mais económico, talvez não seja a melhor opção!
Pros:

A localização do Hotel é muito boa, sendo fácil caminhar para todos os pontos de interesse da Cidade (Casco VIejo, Museu Guggenheim). Os funcionários da receção e do serviço de pequeno-almoço são simpáticos.

Cons:

Os quartos têm péssima insonorização, não sendo fácil dormir quando nos quartos em redor os ocupantes falam alto.
A limpeza pode ser melhorada, e algumas zonas mostram sinais evidentes de degradação (infiltração de àgua).
O pequeno-almoço é muito básico.

Ein für einen Roadtrip nur bedingt geeignetes Hotel, das schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist
Pros:

Die Zimmer war schon veraltet; das Hotel liegt zwar im Zentrum; das Wohnviertel ist allerdings nicht sehr ansprechend; das Frühstück war sehr bescheiden; das Buffet wurde nur zögerlich ergänzt

Cons:

Für einen Roadtrip war das Hotel aufgrund der sehr geringen Einfahrtshöhe von 1,8 m der Tiefgarage nur bedingt geeignet. Weiters sollte die Hotelangestellten über die richtige Einfahrtshöhe informiert sein > die Auskunft war 2,0 m.
