The hotel is in a weird neighborhood (with a lot of ladies of the night). The rooms are ok, the staff is helpful. Aircon, hairdryer (which didn't blow hot air). Were woken up a few times during the night (you can hear everything through the thin walls). All in all: if you need a place just to come back late... More

Very nice and clean place to stay. The reception is really good. More

Very comfortable mattress, new bathroom. Simple but comfortable. The corridors have no decoration at all, unless the owners were looking for the "unfinished warehouse" style (you get used to it). Street view rooms are warmer, even though all of them have central heating / aircon. I stayed 4-5th november 2011, in single and double rooms. The price in low season... More

This is a well located, good value place to stay in Bilbao. The room was small, functional and clean; a few minutes from the old town and about 15-20 mins walk to the Guggenheim. The staff were polite and friendly, and spoke good English. If you want a simple room for the night that does not cost the earth, this... More

We were a little scared because of some comments here, and Google Maps took a through the "red light district". For Bilbao people it is the 5th parish or the San Fransisco quarter. Since I was walking there with my wife, the... More

The hotel is located close to old city. The people were really friendly and the room was clean, comfortable with a really cool and nice design. It was really quiet and the services fantastic. We loved it and we recomend everybody to prefer Bilbi for nice holidays! More

Firstly, we arrived by bus and caught the tram to Ribera. We then turned left and walked up to the pedestrian bridge over the river but that took us through a slightly seedy area. We recommend you turn right and walk over that car/pedestrian bridge, it's a much safer feeling walk and about the same distance (although you avoid stairs... More

At first blush, I went back out to the rental car and looked at other nearby possibilities. The best thing I can say is that the Bilbi isn't as bad as I feared. This hotel is borderline in every sense of the word. I mean that literally as you would not want to head west from the hotel as you... More

I stayed here as part of a group, and did not pick or book the hotel myself. So doing what everybody does I googled it to try and get an idea, bad idea - I saw some pretty bad reviews of the hotel and the area. However I was pleasantly surprised, the area was fine, a short stroll (3-4 mins)... More
