Pensión Arias

Pleasant
Traveller Type: Family with Young Children
  : The staff member eased the deposit payment since there's no reception (check-in 24/7). The room was clean and the beds comfortable.
  : You have to log the code in every door every time (bedroom, bathroom). The lock of the bedroom stopped unlocking the first time I left the room on check-out day before the mandatory check-out time. A family member had to be inside the bedroom to let you in! The doors and walls are thin and you get to hear everybody's passion night, etc....

Traveller Type:
  : The hall smelled great, the room was clean and the process of things very smooth. I loved the location. I felt very comfortable at all times, like home truly!
  : Given the festivities, someone made a bit of a mess in the bathroom on Saturday that was not clean until Monday. Not enough to bother most people though. There could be some cleaning supplies for the guests use, just in case it's needed. And more trash bags

  : It was well located near walking distance to almost everything. Easy access with a code, and quiet most of the time.
  : The rooms window was oriented to an internal patio, so it was possible to hear all the conversations of the neighbours (more people lives in the building) and smell the cigarette smoke from very early in the morning until late, regardless it was strictly not allowed in the pension. In that case, our option was to close the window and have no ventilation at all, which was not possible due to the heat wave of the season. Although the facilities looked clean, the smell of chemical products was very overwhelming, and for example, the floor was super slippery, likely due to the excess of soap.

  : It was clean, with a good location and contactless
  : Extremely small room, felt like a hostel ( many noisy neighbours) and every door had a code lock ( even the bathroom)

  : The location was convenient, as we arrived and left Bilbao with the bus. It was about a 10 minute walk. The hotel looked out onto a little local square with trees and shade (it looks better than the pictures) with a couple of bars and cafes around it. There was also a supermarket a 5 minute walk away. The room was simple, but clean and comfortable enough for one or two nights. A local area, and close enough to walk to the center of Bilbao. The price was good, compared with others in Bilbao in high season.
  : There is no reception, and we found it difficult to use the codes to unlock the front door, as well as the door to the pension itself. A code was needed to get into the shared bathrooms as well, which is sort of awkward when you need to use it in the night. The instructions to get into the building and rooms could be made more clear. Also, because there's no reception, there is no option to store bags in case of early arrival/ late departure.
