We had such a fun and social experience during our stay at Downtown River. The staff organized an amazing pub crawl night out of town for us, and we had a blast! The rooms were spacious and had everything we needed, and the kitchen was a great social area where we met new people and enjoyed card games. The location was excellent, close to attractions and supply stores. The staff were also very helpful with directions. I would definitely recommend this hostel.
One drawback was that our room was located close to the road, so it was a bit noisy. We also had some issues with the drains in the showers, as the water would spread all over the shower room.

J'ai séjourné dans cet hôtel lors de mon voyage à petit budget, et je dois dire que j'ai été agréablement surpris par la propreté et le confort de la chambre. Le personnel était également très serviable et aimable. De plus, le fait d'avoir un restaurant sur place était un bonus très appréciable. L'emplacement était également très pratique, car l'hôtel était situé très près de RioCentro, ce qui rendait mes déplacements faciles et rapides. Je recommande cet hôtel à tous ceux qui recherchent un hébergement abordable et pratique.
Le bruit était un peu gênant, surtout la nuit. Les murs semblaient être fins, car je pouvais souvent entendre les personnes de la chambre voisine parler fort tard dans la nuit.

Great location right across the river from the bus station. We loved being able to explore the town and hang out on the beach during the day and at night. The air-conditioned room was a relief from the heat. And despite some drawbacks, the staff were friendly and helpful. a decent place to stay in San Sebastian.

The sociable atmosphere at Downtown River made my stay in San Sebastian truly enjoyable. From the moment I arrived, I found it easy to connect with fellow travelers in the open plan kitchen area. The clean and spacious dorm room provided a comfortable space to rest. Although there were some issues with the facilities, such as the shower doors not locking and an incident with an intruder, the overall experience was positive. The location is convenient, allowing easy access to all the must-see attractions. The kind and helpful staff added to the positive atmosphere of the hostel. I would recommend Downtown River for its sociable ambiance and great location.

During our stay at Downtown River, we were thrilled to find the hostel in a convenient location near the bus and train stations. With just a short walk, we found ourselves surrounded by vibrant bars, restaurants, and beautiful beaches. The male staff members, including Ben, Josh, and Mario, were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about San Sebastian and the local culture. We thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour and pub crawls organized by the hostel.
Although the common space was limited to the kitchen, it was well-equipped for our needs. We had a clean, friendly, and fun stay at Downtown River, and we would definitely return in the future!

Walked 8 minutes to Old Town full of tapas bars, had a shared kitchen and lounge with a tour desk, luggage storage, library, and laundry services. Free WiFi and close to the train station and La Concha Beach.
Couldn't hear myself think over the noise of the busy street.

I had a wonderful stay at a hostel in Europe recently. The location was perfect, just a quick walk from the bus station and close to everything in the city. The hostel had a cozy and friendly vibe, and the staff were incredibly helpful. I enjoyed participating in the group dinners and pub crawls they organized, which added to the fun atmosphere. The hostel was also well-renovated and super clean, which made my stay even more comfortable. I highly recommend this hostel.

We had a wonderful stay at Downtown River. The location was perfect, allowing us to walk to all the attractions and supply stores. The kitchen was well-equipped with a fridge and freezer, which was great for keeping our drinks and snacks cold. The staff were very helpful and gave us excellent directions to nearby places on the map. The spacious showers were a pleasant surprise, and the fact that our room was on the ground floor made it easy to manage our luggage. We were also delighted to receive a 10% discount for our next stay. I highly recommend this hostel for solo travelers.

The hostel is conveniently located just a couple of minutes walk from both the train and bus stations. It made it super easy for us to explore the city and also catch our transportation to other destinations. the hostel had all the necessary amenities, including a kitchen with cooking facilities and a nearby supermarket. the friendly receptionist went above and beyond to help us find a printing service, even though it was late at night. Thanks to her, we were able to get our boarding passes printed in Barcelona. we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend Downtown River to fellow travelers!
Nothing.

I recently stayed at Downtown River in San Sebastian for a few nights and had a great experience. The hostel is conveniently located just a 2-minute walk from the train station and a short 25-minute walk from the bus station. The receptionist, a very helpful and friendly Latvian girl, went above and beyond to assist me with finding a printing service late at night. The hostel also has a kitchen with all the necessary cooking facilities, and there is a supermarket just a 10-minute walk away. I particularly enjoyed the comfortable bed-side lamps in the rooms.
I highly recommend this hostel.
