The location of the pension is very good, close to the beach and the city centre. If you’re driving the hotel has an excellent setup with large parking garage across the street - for €15/day, which is added to your hotel bill, you get in and out privileges at the garage. This is a pension, not a hotel so please note that reception is only open till 9:30. Speaking of reception, the staff is amazing!! When I asked if I could have a small container of milk for my fridge, Martha at the desk offered to give me a kettle and brought a tray with various teas to my room. Martha is truly a gem! In addition, the pension offers services like parasols, beach mats and beach towels on loan; with no deposit required! Rooms are typical size for a European city, cleanliness is good and a good sized wardrobe. Electric rolling shutters are great to block out noise and provide blackout for sleeping. Pension Kursál is a true gem in beautiful San Sebastián.
