Old Town Palace (Casco Viejo Bilbao) EBI01877

Goede plek, middenin het oude centrum , lastig om binnen te komen, maar via telefonisch contact lukte dit. Schoon en volledig ingericht appartement Goede bedden. warme douche en een lift Openbaar vervoer dicht in de buurt

Veel lawaai tot diep in de nacht van de bars in de straat beneden

Super lokatie,leukste gedeelte van bilbao

Goede oorjes kunnen daar gebruiken

It was clean easy to find as described. Had everything you could need. Very very central to some of the most wonderful bars and restaurants so much choice. Nothing was too much trouble for the hosts. Extra towels not an issue a slightly later check out again no worries

There is only one issue and they can do nothing about it. One of the big thing going for it was how central it is to the bars and restaurants that is also it down side. It was noisy late at night. Till 4am one night at least. The windows are original and the building must be 100s of years old so the sound proofing is really non existent The quieter rooms are the single and middle double

It's a very spacious apartment. It's in a great location to get straight to bars (more on that below) and restaurants, and everything is very walkable. The street is actually one of the original seven streets of Bilbao, making it feel particularly authentic.

As other reviews have noted, the apartment sits above a bar. On our first night (Saturday night) the bar was open until 5am and the noise was unbelievable. Thankfully it was quieter on subsequent evenings. There was also a sort of balcony (in which the TV sat, so not really accessible) which had strip lighting. Insofar as I could see it was not possible to turn these off anywhere. The bedroom nearest the windows had curtains the nearside of the strip lights, which helped, but this is an odd feature. The shower is very powerful, as others have noted: the trick is to not put the tap on completely and that way it will stay where you want it, and not comically flip up, spraying the wall opposite. Tricky to use the Nuki app to sort the keys, but we got there in the end.

It was very spacious and in a very good location in the old town.

Nothing.

Great location in the Old Town.

Very central and nice Spanish experience.

Very loud noise from bar below appartment

Spacious,good kitchen,very powerful shower,heart of the Old Town,period features.

Noise - if you are looking to be out drinking in old town until early morning Thursday -Saturday fine,otherwise the noise of everyone else partying in the street(on warm nights without rain) will keep you awake.With the provided earplugs it is just about possible to sleep in the middle double bedroom but not the front double bedroom.The space has a lack of natural light due to the narrow street it sits on.The shower has brilliant pressure but you have to hold the shower head in your hand as if you put it in the wall clip the pressure causes the shower head to fire water directly at the ceiling! A lack of sharp chopping knives in the kitchen.Access to flat involves downloading a phone app for first entry,it is fine after that as you can use normal keys.

A spacious and comfortable apartment in a great location; in the heart of if the old town and well connected to the rest of the city. Hosts were helpful and answered all questions via the app.

It took some patience to locate it within the old city streets. The benefits of the location outweighed the noise from bars for us. Worth bearing in mind though that we were there at the time of the festival which goes on until late each night. Our kids slept well, but you may wish to consider the noise if you have kids who need silence to sleep. The ear plugs and eye sheild left by the host came in handy.
