2nd time staying here. Great little apartment. Right on Yamaguchi grounds. I had the courtyard side where it’s lined with restaurants. Excellent choices and food. Can get loud if there is someone yelling , but it’s never for long. I do wish it was more soundproof though.

Great last minute place to stay for San Fermin. Bus stop right out front was able to take us to city center. Only downfall is it’s pretty far from restaurants and eateries but overall property was clean, decent gym, and very friendly hosts.

We stayed in Pamplona during San Fermin. This hotel is about 25 minutes walk from the city center, so it was a nice quiet place in contrast to the crazy festival. The hotel gave us red scarfs for the festival, so we didn't have to buy our own which was a neat bonus. We didn't do the buffet breakfast at the hotel, but the cafe they have is really nice and serves great food and coffee. We highly recommend it. Staff were helpful and there was a laundromat nearby which was super.
