“The location in the heart of the old town is a real win; you're immediately among San Sebastian's best tapas spots. While clearly popular with couples, I felt the autonomous entry added a practical, modern touch. I particularly appreciated the staff recommendations; they steered me toward an unexpectedly amazing culinary experience.”
