Summary of traveller reviews

Koba Hostel in San Sebastian is praised for its excellent location, just a short walk from the beach and city centre. Guests frequently highlight the friendly and helpful staff, the cleanliness of the property, and the good value offered, especially with the complimentary breakfast. While generally a quiet and relaxed atmosphere, some mention it's not the most social. Showers can be a bit basic, with water cutting off periodically.

Just an amazing spot! Odd arrangement of the bedroom but other than that the provided breakfast was amazing and the team could not have been nicer / more welcoming! Met amazing hostel friends here as well :) thank you Koba!

En general, una buena experiencia. El hostal está muy bien ubicado, cerca de la playa, restaurantes y a unos 10 minutos caminando de la estación de autobuses. Está limpio, tiene buenos espacios comunes, desayuno y el personal es muy amable. Es un hostel bastante tranquilo y me pareció poco social. Vi algunos grupos haciendo amistad y había interacción en el desayuno, pero no organizan muchas actividades. Buen lugar si buscas tranquilidad.
