Creator's Key Takeaways

We did take the train from Barcelona when we got off of our cruise into San Sebastian.

This does not have air conditioning though, so I would not suggest renting this place in the summer.

The area is fantastic. We were probably about an 8-minute walk from the train station.

We had a wonderful free walking tour and that was through freeour.com.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Rent an Airbnb with an elevator in Europe to avoid stairs with luggage.

✓Check if the accommodation has air conditioning if visiting in summer.

✓Ensure restaurants have bread when ordering pichos in San Sebastián.

✓Use free walking tours to learn about the city and get restaurant tips.
