Very nice facility with excellent service at front desk. The airport shuttle is very convenient and had no trouble making a 7AM departure. The breakfast is super and starts at 5Am. This is an ideal hotel to use if you have an early flight the next morning or are arriving late to Bilbao Airport. It is not close to central Bilbao.

The common area is very nice and updated. The rooms are not there were mode due between the grout line. The tub was old and the towers were tired. The shuttle service was marginal leaving was good but coming from the airport the driver didn’t bother to stop. Literally just did a drive-by.
