Family of 4. Stayed 1 night in a family room with private bathroom and it was perfect, even better than we thought. Very well located 10 min walk to the beach and 5 min walk to bus station to go to the city center. Would definitely recommend.

The hostel had a privacy data leak and was used in a phishing scam. When I asked for a refund since I didn't trust them after my data was leaked, they refused. I booked a different hotel. Be careful booking with them.
We booked a complete room for 4 adults, immediately checked with hotel to make sure we had a private bathroom since we were traveling with my elderly parents, a private bathroom was all we cared about, they confirmed that the bathroom was inside but when checking in later that night, the bathroom was shared with other rooms and when we called to complain about it, they just said that the case was being reviewed but didn't answer until 72 hours later and they denied our claim. Not going back there and not recommending it to anyone with a family.
We were a group of 8 traveling together and walking the camino del Norte. This is on the other side of San Sebastián so added several km to an already long hike...in addition the check in process is the worst I've ever experienced. It took us 2 hours + as there is no person at the front desk to help. I was literally standing at an intercom with 7 others waiting for almost 2 hours! there has to be a more accessible way for those on the go to not have to enter every person' information. A front desk person would make this a much more pleasant experience. Otherwise it was miserable.

Kontiki Tours and kids at a sport camp overwhelmed the hostel. Some staff were helpful, some moody. The beds offered little privacy, and the rooms were tight. The patio was unavailable for some reason - or reserved for the bus tour. The location is up a hill, but the parts with views have no chairs or social amenties.
Lovely staff, clean and comfortable rooms and the beautiful San Sebastián to occupy your waking moments. I was very happy here and extended my stay. Ignoring the wonderful setting that is San Sebastián I struggle to fault my welcome and stay at this hostel. Having a fast metabolism i perhaps found it a little warm inside at times with the staff preferring the warmth of the recently past summer to the comfortable autumn temperatures.
Excellent place to stay. Was easy walking distance to cafés, restaurants or the bus system to get to downtown San Sebastian. The staff was great, the environment you felt safe and it was nice and quiet.
Staff was very kind and helpful. A plus for the hostel. The bathroom/showers could have been maintained a bit better (toilet seat and flush buttons broken in one bathroom). The 6 bed shared dorm was smaller than expected, and got stuffy at night.
This is excellent accommodation for all age groups. We stayed in an en suite family room for 4 which was clean and comfortable. It was very quiet and even didn’t use cafe it looked good. Only down side is if you have a car there is no parking and of course as this was peak period hard to find parking in area.

a Good hostel but far a way to get to .
The location is out of town you need to take a bus number 18 or 25 to get to from city center and when you arrive you need to walk an walk up long steps to get to the hostel also you need to pay for your own towel and you are not allowed to bring any food from outside .
Really clean and modern. No kitchen but there are microwaves and toasters. Rooms are small, so prepare for that. Very helpful staff. It’s not far from the beach, but prepare for a walk up the hill!
