San Mames: Cheaper and Cheerful San Mames Review

I arranged the before arriving by the internet. It was a lot cheaper than the other pensions and hotels I saw. I am not the type of person who usually stays in nice hotels like a lot of you but in hostels and pensions (the cheapest options), so if you are looking for luxury this place isn't for you.

I think it cost about 62 euros for a triple room which is not bad. They have 5 rooms in total with 2 shared bathrooms. The rooms are simple, old but adequate. The double rooms were about 35-40€.

The website attached explains more about the place, the page is even in Spanish, English or French. The website is very complete with instructions on how to find Pension San Mames and things to do while you are in Bilbao.

Unique Qualities: What made it a great stay for me was the exceptionally friendly owner, who was a lovely, helpful and cheerful lady.
