Apartamento en el corazón de Bilbao

Rated on: 30.04.2026 Length of stay: 2 months

Overall price/value of the apartment is low in my opinion. Despite stated in the ad, the entry to the apartment is not truly independent as owners use for passing to hang clothes in the patio. There is no door in the kitchen, so it is open towards the entry door and it is in a common space with owner's kitchen (separated with a slide door), therefore you would hear everything from their side. When I pointed this out politely (with some simple fix, like a curtain for the kitchen) owner became defensive and quite passive agressive. I believe there must be a cultural difference regarding expectations (e.g. for independent entry). The entry door leads to a small elevator in the patio, unfortunately it went wrong twice during my stay, so could not use this door (no connection to stairs), and was obliged to ask to be let out and in through the owner's flat for 2 weeks, very uncomfortable. The flat is on the first floor and looking to a small, closed patio floor, therefore very dark. Some things are only for decor in the flat (standing lamp, a fridge, the piano). However, if you do not spend much time in the flat, it could be ok and probably during summer heat the patio darkness might be even good. Note that this apartment is indeed within a big apartment in a big block house on first floor.

Neighborhood
The neighbourhood is fantastic, you have everything in your doorstep. In the bakery around the corner, the very kind lady would remember your coffee preference after 2 weeks and serves you with a nod and a smile. Very close to Mojua metro station, which takes you to the oceanside directly (perfect for weekends). On foot, it is close to the river and central areas. Shopping options are great, with many choices of groceries and also many small shops open late in the night too. Laundry service is close too. Overall, it is a perfect, central location yet still quiet.
