Mercado del Tinglado

Despite the very weird layout (you need to go up to the second floor to get back down to the first). There isn’t really any staff. Cleaners yes and someone sits at the desk for a few hours. It’s one of those annoying techie hotels where you do most of the work and check yourself in. This was annoying but not as bad as the sound insulation. We had the displeasure of listening to our upstairs neighbour flush their toilet and have a shower. It sounded like the water was coming into the room. Sound from outside the room from both neighbours and the hallway was crazy loud. The cotton bag the hairdryer came in was covered in black mould. There was also finger marks on the windowsill outside making it look like someone was trying to get in.

A charming small hotel in the old town of Bilbao, it was close to all the major sights and activities. The rooms are pleasant with high quality linens, and the breakfast is made to order. Highly recommended!
