펜시온 우르키아(Pension Urkia)

Very central , supermarket across the street. Few mins walk to bus station and beach. Very neat little room with all the necessities plus thoughtful extras to make the stay comfortable like coffee/tea ( in the foyer), microwave, cutlery, fridge. The ladies working there are very kind and helpful . There is traffic noise at night but OK with windows closed . If your next door neighbour snores you will hear it! So bring earplugs . Pay attention to the info in the booking messages because the staff are based nearby in another property so there may be few mins wait to open the door for you . All queries answered straight away via WhatsApp , excellent service .

Location: amazing Cleanliness: excellent Noise: we were in room #1 , windows open for fresh air( reminder - no AC) , lots of noise at night. Sat. night was the worst. It was a busy weekend in Donostia. Amenities: there was a kitchen across the hall which was handy. The room had a little fridge with some bowls and utensils. Bathroom: had everything we needed but it is tiny-one has to sit to the side as our knees would not fit going forward. Check in:Despite sending two emails with our arrival time, the check in person was walking out the door as we walked up. However, she made a call and stayed to check us in. Not to worry anyway, as there is always someone 5 minutes away at their other pension. The balcony was tiny but handy for drying clothes. If you keep in mind what it is, it is an acceptable choice.

Stayed here for 2 nights. Room was very clean with the added bonus of a microwave and fridge. There were nice little touches with lamps and plants. Bathroom was small but had everything you needed including hairdryer and rainforest shower head. Toilet was sealed with hygiene tape to show that it had been disinfected. You could help yourself to tea and coffee in the foyer. Comprehensive communication from the manager, very helpful for finding parking. Minus 1 star for no air-con and we were unable to leave a window open due to noise and being overlooked. Luckily it wasn’t too hot in October. Dog friendly, they even provide dog bowls and beds. Would highly recommend this place. In fact we are going to book again for next year.

Wow this is an amazing location and a big room. Beside the bus station, the beach, the supermarket. Great shower. Fridge. Balcony. Fans available if too hot. We loved it here. The best pintxos or restaurant is right around the corner in Sansse.

Super friendly staff, very clean room and perfect area.

Do not make the same mistake I did and stay here. This is the worst stay I’ve had in any hostel/hotel ever. The level of noise through the day and night was awful and the curtain was basically sheer so the rooms gets way too bright. Also the heat didn’t seem to be working. I checked out before my reservation was over and totally wasted my money.

Clean central reasonably priced

The Pension Urkia is in an excellent location: it is walking distance to the beach, shopping, bars and restaurants. Our balcony had a wonderful view of the street. The bed was a bit firm, but everything else was pleasant.

Everything was fine except for the fact the noise was unreal. All night long banging of doors. Every morning at 7 AM there is a school below you and the talking begins every day. So loud that you could hear them inside your room with windows closed and music playing. A solid night sleep was impossible there. I almost went crazy. Only book if you are there for one night only
