Lovely place to stay in San Sebastian/Donatia. Very close to the beach and an easy walk to great food. Convenient to train and bus station. The staff was happy to help with my request for a lower bunk. Nice kitchen. Lovely common areas for working or relaxing. I stayed 2 nights, but would have been happy to stay longer!

Patricia was very nice, helped us find a great place for dinner. The layout of the albergue is a little odd...the toilet and sink are in the same room as the shower, so you have to wait for someone to finish showering if you need to use the bathroom.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This is the best hostel I have ever stayed at. The staff were incredibly friendly. Nacho was especially awesome on the kayaking trip and gave me lots of great recommendations of things to see and do during my stay in San Sebastian. The beds were comfortable and the shared areas were awesome. The free breakfast was also great. Such a wonderful hostel.

    Hostel dormitory setup is great, very safe place, good internet, great shower. Kind people at the desk. Location, even having to walk a little bit to the main beach is really not that far. If you want to go to the center takes a little more but anyway, you are there to know the place, walking is a good option.

    Amazing spaces VERY well thought/designed, one of the best if not the best hostel I've ever been, and I've been around... every bed has a big lockable drawer half the size of a bed, lovely staff, secure and safe place, curtains on every bed, electronic bracelet keys for entering the facilities, the room and the lockers.
