My friends and I had an amazing time staying at Koba Hostel. It is perfectly located for Pintxo Pote, the must-do event for visiting San Sebastian and it is also super close to the beach. The place looked very new with a great chill-out vibe.

Hostel is very small but decent! Rooms are clean, beds aren't the most comfy but are ok, bathrooms are clean showers are good always had hot water, Kitchen is good but needs new frying pans with handles and utensils! Wifi is OK not the best unless your on it at 2am when every 1 is asleep or out. Air con is great!! Personally what is is really lacking is a chill out/ common room, But there is no room for it so it can't be achieved! Would stay here again if I return!

A good spot near the train station
It's quite cramped and the reception is minimal
Practical but simple

My and my friend stayed there for one night and it was fantastic! The staff speak fluently English and they are helpful. The kitchen is spatious with all the utilities you might need to cook - big refrigerator, stove, cutlery and plates... The dorms are nice, spatious, provided with lockers. Only thing: the top bunk doesn't have curtains, but didn't really matter to me (there was dark even in the morning due to the shutters). One thing we really appreciate is having free maps and events printed out on the main pinboard and as well we could use all the facilities and a locker room even after we did the checkout. Big bathrooms that are very clean. Wonderful stay and extremely central position (10min from the center walking, 10min from the station Amara).

Smelly sheets and blankets

The friendly and very helpful staff made sure that my bike was safe at night. They are very well organized in the rooms with a locker and a hook next to the bed, 2 plugs at each bed. The kitchen is amazing, fully equipped with stove and oven and a big table where the guests can easily meet up. it seems to be important that it is tidy and the trash is recycled! The location is great almost next to the center of the old town and also not far from the beach I would go there again

Very nice atmosphere in the hostel, we had a great time with my friends, it is a very clean hostel, the beds have curtains and gives a lot of privacy. It is centrally located so it is close to everything and that makes it very comfortable, they also rent surfboards and are very professional.
