Gortazar Studio by Casa 8

Horrible experience Positive: Couldn't tell you since we were unable to use the virtual check in. Negative: Unable to access the apartment but still had to pay. Reserved the room on the same afternoon as our stay, got a message saying there was a digital access, but then a few hours later received a message in Spanish saying there was a deadline to fill out a form with ID and security deposit?? Didn't have access to wifi at that time and when I did fill out the form, never received the access code as promised. Ended up having to reserve a different accommodation late at night. The property manager was rude, told me I had to request a refund through booking.com - booking.com said I had to request it from the property manager. Paid $200 plus the 2nd accommodation to get an attitude from both parties. Property manager wouldn't consider a reschedule, and even in the morning I did not receive the access code to the building for which I paid. Horrible experience.

Positive: Muchas cosas quedaban muy cerca de la ubicación y podías irte caminando. Negative: Mi habitación no estaba limpia del todo y eso afecto mucho mi estancia.

Great stay Positive: The accessibility, the closeness to everything within walking distance. The safety Negative: No safe parking

Positive: La ubicación y el lugar perfectos ,muy cómodo Negative: El olor del agua de las llaves es un olor completamente desagradable, huele a huevo descompuesto, después de un rato con la llaves abierta se baja un poco pero es horrible aún así

Positive: Location is great because everything is on walkable distance, including major transportation hubs. Apartment is nice with all the needed appliances for long stays like a washer/dryer combo, a small fridge, and a burner stove top. Bed is comfortable and bed sheets feel soft and clean. Negative: Major issue during December was the sun hitting intensely directly to the apartment, to the point that the whole place is incredibly hotter than outdoors. Even rolling down the shades was not enough to keep the apartment from over heating and it is harder to get some air circulating. I believe this place strongly needs an AC unit. As a suggestion, before using the washer/dryer unit, a quick tub wash is needed. I felt the detergent compartment was grainy due to people overly pouring soap. Said and done, the quick tub wash generated tons of soapy water. TV is placed on a wall that makes it impossible to turn it around and watch it from bed. TV holder is flimsy and needs a better mounting. As usual, there are some loud visitors that have never lived in an apartment building. Needlessly shouting their businesses on the phone or singing passionately about their broken hearts.
