A nice hotel, located at the opposite end of the bay from the old town. About €11 in a taxi.
Nice rooms, clean and comfortable and a good breakfast. However, no ventilation at all unless you only want stuffy warm air. Opening the window onto the busy street was the only option, which was noisy and did not make for a restful night. Please get some ventilation. One mark off the score because of this ventilation issue

Secure parking available for 19€. Dogs allowed in rooms for charge of 25€, small pet bed provided. Location is in a residential area but there are some restaurants nearby, and the beach is nearby too - lots of dogs there off lead at night. Room is small but nice, our aircon unfortunately didn’t work but the window opens to allow cool air in (with some street noise).

A decent hotel a short walk from the bay. Lots of places to eat and drink just behind the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. Although the additional charges for our pet dog and parking seemed high, the pet welcome pack was appreciated and the parking was secure.

Solid spot, fairly clean room, decent bathroom. Clean and "gets the job done". Location is probably the biggest drawback on the surface if you are a tourist and want to spend most of your time in the Old Town, but this is easily remedied by using the bus, which has a stop right out front.

The neighborhood it resides in is actually full of more budget travelers and locals, so exploring this part of Donostia will actually yield some quaint surprises you might have missed had you stayed in the city center.

Service is solid, but the lobby is small and only one person is working the desk at a time so there's often a wait. The cafeteria and bar are very basic and sterile, best to avoid and just visit the many amazing cafes nearby for breakfast.
