- Karina (10/5): Great trip to Bilbao topped off by staying in a beautiful apartment. - The apartment was ideally located. Right in the centre of the Oldtown. It was easy to access and clear instructions were given on how to get in. Communication with the owners was excellent. It could get a little noisy at night given the situation of the apartment as it is close by to a couple of bars. It was worth it as the apartment was ideal.

- Mélanie (8/5): - Super emplacement et appartement très agréable

Ubicación
Decoración y el apartamento es prácticamente nuevo.
Súper recomendable Es una calle de bares, ruidoso. Hay bullicio de gente, especialmente en fin de semana. Pero vaya, nos dejaron unos tapones para dormir y está bastante bien aislado.
- Howard (10/5): Fantastic city full of culture - Beautifully presented and great location Not much
- lopes (10/5): - El baño El ruido de la calle
- Marie charlotte (9/5): Escale design & Tapas à Bilbao - Au cœur du vieux Bilbao avec des prestations de qualité et une très bonne isolation phonique, on se sent comme chez soi…
Spacieux, design et épuré nous avons beaucoup aimé… -
- Pedro (9/5): Óptima experiência - Excelente localização, e apesar do susto pelo aspecto exterior do prédio, nomeadamente as áreas comuns, o apartamento está muito bem decorado, é novo e muito confortável. Mesmo não tendo ar condicionado, a casa manteve-se quente apesar do frio exterior, julgo por ter pavimento radiante. O barulho exterior, apesar de ser fim de ano, não afetou o dormir pois tem um excelente isolamento acústico, e não precisámos usar os tampões para os ouvidos que foram disponibilizados. O único reparo é a existência de poucos copos e acessórios de cozinha.

- Atc (8/5): -
- Vinicio (10/5): al centro di tutto - La posizione strategica, anche se un po rumorosa.
La casa è praticamente nuova la colazione scarsa, quasi inesistente, siamo usciti a comprarci qualcosa per i 3 giorni
- Andrew (10/5): -
- Elizabeth (8/5): Well located apartment for the old town and other attractions are in easy walking distance. Comfortable stay. - Nicely decorated. Well laid out and enough space for everyone. Nothing.
- John (9/5): -
- Dayana (5/5): Great location, beautiful flat, terrible door system. - The location and layout of the flat. The electronic system of the door was faulty and we spent a fair amount of time outside debating with the owner whether the system actually works until she decided to open the door remotely.
The corridor was like a horror film, no light, old and dilapidated.
Despite confirming the check out time to the owner, the cleaner walked in over 30 minutes early.
- Gitte (10/5): Lækker lejlighed der var ren og gode senge - vil gerne overnatte her igen. - At det var nyt, rent og beliggenhed Ville være en udfordring hvis der var varmt da der ikke er a/c og så er der som ventet meget larm fra gaden da det er folk mødes om aftenen og natten så godt med ørepropper fra værten.
- Cyrielle ROUTIER (9/5): - L emplacement et les équipements
- Louise (10/5): The apartment was exceptional. - Very modern, in the heart of the old town- had everything one could need!
Wish we could have stayed longer!! There was a football game that day in the city and the fans partied till 2.00am. The area was very busy!!
- martinez (10/5): - Buena decoración, moderno y cómodo El personal de limpieza nos tocó la puerta antes de la hora de salida
- Joao Miguel (10/5): - Muito espaçoso, muito bem decorado e apetrechado, bem localizado para conhecer a cidade. Mesmo com as festas da cidade tem boa insonorização. Ouve-se a rua, mas face ao barulho exterior admira o isolamento sonoro. Pena não ter AC. E para quem vai de carro apenas há parques a 500 metros ou mais.
- Paolo (10/5): Appartamento perfetto per il centro, raffinato e funzionale. - la location, nel pieno del centro storico. adatto per chi ama frequentare i locali ma anche per chi vuole muoversi a piedi.
la bellezza dell'appartamento. ristrutturazione recentissima con grande gusto.
funzionalità: nell'appartamento è presente tutto ciò che serve.
gentilezza e prontezza dell'host: Vero ti segue a distanza ma è sempre molto disponibile. Anche il sistema automatizzato di accesso ha funzionato bene. forse la mancanza di aria condizionata. ma l'appartamento è fornito di ventilatori in tutte le stanze. è possibile che la mancanza di aria condizionata sia legata a regole del centro storico.
- claudio (10/5): - very new and clean appartment
located just in the old town
host is very resposive and helpfull
very high quality interior Can be a bit noisy in the night
- Heddeke (10/5): Een oase van rust midden in het bruisende deel van de stad! - Superschoon, mooi en heel efficiënt ingericht. Heerlijke bedden. Een oase van rust in een bruisend deel van de stad. Er lagen oordopjes klaar, maar wij hebben geen enkel geluid gehoord. Het contact met de verhuurder was erg vriendelijk, snel en behulpzaam. Een plek om naar terug te komen! -
- Ian (10/5): -
- Melanie (10/5): - Very nice apartment, spacious rooms, new and well equipped kitchen, right in the middle of the old town Indeed it is very noisy because of all the bars, but it didn't really bother us and earplugs were provided by the host
- Lee (8/5): Really enjoyed it - Great location, of course, there is some outdoor noise, that’s because it’s in the best part of town. No air conditioner
- Nicole (8/5): Nice apartment in the middle of nightlife center of Bilbao - Nicely designed and spacious apartment. Comfortable beds. In the middle of the old town. The apartment is in the middle of a street with pubs with loud music till late night. Earplugs help but you cannot open a window for fresh air. No air conditioning.
- Andrea (10/5): Perfect location with great comfort - Excellent location in the Casco Viejo district. Great restaurants and stores nearby.
- James (9/5): Nice, comfortable apartment in a good location. - The apartment was bright and comfortable, nicely laid out with a well equipped, easy to use kitchen with modern appliances. We were unsure about using wooden handled pots in the oven so didn't feel able to try it but it looked very good. The photos of the apartment give a good impression of how it looks and feels. We didn't have any problem with noise and found the double glazing did the trick, although we were there in the early spring the bars were still quite busy.
The area has a nice atmosphere and feels like a place where people live although there are plenty of tourists visiting and in the evenings I think people come from other parts of the city to visit the bars and eateries. If you want to self-cater, as we did, there are plenty of places to get provisions; local butchers, fishmongers and grocers as well as a large Carrefour supermarket about 6 minutes away and the glorious La Ribera market at the far end of the street and across the road, 3-4 minutes walk.
The apartment is well located for getting around the city and beyond with the metro, buses and trams and the railway station within easy walking distance. Several place were closed for renovation while we were there but we enjoyed the Museo de Bellas Artes (being upgraded but still with a small but wonderful set of exhibitions), and the Azkuna Zentro which is an amazing culture centre converted from a large, old wine market. We also visited the Itsas maritime museum which is fabulous.
A nice, comfortable apartment where we would be happy to stay again. The under floor heating was a bit of a problem for us. The owner turned it up for us but it still didn't really do the trick, also without radiators or a heated towel rail it was difficult to dry things.
The steps leading to the apartment could do with a bit more light.
- Gargas (9/5): Overall wonderful experience! Loved the location and comfort of the stay! - Great space! Beds were very comfortable. Everything was easy to use. The indoor shades were a great additive. Location was incredible as we were within walking distance of plenty of food/drink spots. There were two light rail stops within a couple minute walk. The long-distance rail station is only a 10min walk, if you don’t want to wait for the light rail. The outdoor shades were not easy to use. It wasn’t very clear how to pull them down as it felt like they were going to break if we tried. We didn’t use them so night-time privacy felt like it was a little lacking.
- Justin (9/5): I would go and stay again - Very modern and well laid out Nothing
- Myriam (9/5): Superb - Wonderful hosts. Josune was very responsive and easy to communicate with.
Beautiful renovated apartment in old town.
Mixed feelings about the location; right in the middle of old town which is great but if you don't like the liveliness then this is not the place for you. They have done everything to reduce the noise but just be aware that old town is very lively till early hours and we visited during the week in October so I can't imagine what it would be in summer time. Maybe paper towel and/or kitchen towels to be provided. There was nothing in the kitchen to dry dishes or your hands therefore we had to use one of the bath towels.
- Henry (10/5): Nice time in Bibloa - Great apartment in good location. Nice to be close to the market and it's good food. Guggenheim was a nice walk. Took a while to figure out system to enter for the first time.
- Kate (10/5): Amazing apartment. Great communication from the hosts who were so helpful. Little touches like the ear plugs in case the - Beautiful apartment in the heart of the old town.
- Joan (6/5): Modern , BUT be prepared.. - Fresh, stylish modern apartment. The high tech system , meant we couldn't adjust temperature without contacting the owner. Also details regarding things like clothes rack was not obvious. Definitely minimal bedroom furniture. One night, street below was crazy loud... Until 4 AM. (Saturday) Renters need to be prepared for this.
- Marta (9/5): Superb -
- Stacey (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was very well appointed and looked just like the pictures. It was clean and comfortable. We were left milk, coffee and muffins for breakfast. The street noise can be heard if people are out late, but everything has been done to combat the noise (window coverings, earplugs). We used a white noise app on our phones and it worked. Would stay again and reccommend.
