Clean handy location and nice food in the restaurant. Good brekkie.
Pros:

Handy for the airport. Did have to wait a bit for the shuttle but v handy. And if you’re picking up a hire car the next day - check where it is. We realised we only had to walk a few mins from the hotel to RecordGo. Rather than shuttle into airport and then the hire car shuttle back to wxactlybwhere we already are !

Habitacion bien, personal bien, comida fatal y alejado de Bilbao.
Pros:

Traslado del aeropuerto y el personal. Desayuno normal

Cons:

No me gusto nada la carta para comer algo, pésima. Dos bocadillos, 2 pizzas, 1 albóndigas y alitas de pollo. Horrible.
No me gustó llegar a las 15h y tener que comer solo un croissant porque no había cocina hasta las 18h.
