Nice room close to the old town.
The room was clean and tidy in a property which was well-situated close to the older area of the city. The host was very helpful and explained everything we needed to know, including good breakfast recommendation. We had a good stay.

Nice for a pension which is better than a hostel, more like a motel. Clean. Not as spacious as pictures make it look. Fine for 1-2 night stay. Convenient to walk to all the main areas. Do not recommend if you have a car. No parking. Construction going on right outside the building so noisy early in the morning.

Great place for a quick stay in San Sebastián, close to the train/bus station and 10 minute walk from the city center. Not the most luxurious or most welcoming, but it serves its purpose :) Overall, recommenced!

nice place, nice people, good location
I actually ended up staying at Pension San Ignacio Centro, their another location - so this is a review for Ignacio.
Javier was very helpful and communicated well before my arrival to make sure that I meet him at the location for check-in.
Hotel is clean and it's actually pretty modern inside (card keys, elevator etc). Staff are all nice and friendly. Location is good - can walk to most of places.
I enjoyed staying there & would go back. Thank you so much.

The room was spacious, clean and really warm. Javier was very sympathetic and helpful, he gave us a few tips to visit the city and where to eat that were good recommendations. No view due to some works in the streets but all good, very quite too. And a kettle in the room wth a couple of tea bags, instant coffee and milk which we thought a nice attention in this cold winter day,

Basic convenienient hotel in San Sebastian
Good communications from Hotel, however note that unstaffed after 9.30pm.
Staff really friendly and on the ball and had everything ready for my arrival, gave a little orientation of area on a map and answered all questions and booked a taxi for next morning - cannot fault how friendly and helpful. This is what makes a hotel good.
Room was small and very very warm but clean and all basic requirements met, however a little updating and replacing tired bed/furniture and a little maintenance wouldn't go amiss.
Do not expect breakfast there is no food facility, it is a hotel to sleep at only. No hot drink facilities in room a hot drink vending machine in the lobby area make sure you have some change.
WIFI worked really well.
I was here for one night for work so it met my needs perfectly, 5 minutes walk from the station and 5 minutes walk from the beach and the bars and cafes of San Sebastian.
Would I stay here again - yes I would.

no front desk
The Pension de San Sebastian is only 5 minutes from the bus stop. There are lots of restaurants nearby. You are maybe 10 minutes from beach and old town areas. There is no front desk. You need to make arrangements ahead of time for check-in or there is no one to meet you. Javier was very nice and let me stay in a bigger room since the hotel wasn't full. The cleanliness could have been improved there was a lot of hair on comforter and in bathroom. Overall it was a really nice stay.

Good value Pension.
Nice clean Pension in Gros. 5 minutes walk from bus station, nice cafe round the corner for breakfast, short walk to the old town and beaches.
Room 101 quite noisy because of the trains, but other guests walking up and down we're quite noisy too!

Did not feel safe
I left here without staying even one of the two nights I booked because I did not feel safe. The staff was not there when they said they would be. At night around 9pm someone knocked on my door and wouldn't answer when I asked who it was.
This location also would not refund me for the second night even though I did not stay there and expressed that I did not feel safe at all.
