With free WiFi available, I was able to stay connected and share my incredible experience at this charming Lesaka hostel. Situated just 25 km away from the bustling city of San Sebastian, the location provided a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. The highlight of my stay, however, was the delightful terrace where I enjoyed sipping my morning coffee, immersing myself in the tranquil surroundings, and feeling as though I had found a hidden oasis amidst the world.

Limited room space.

I got great value for my money at Matxinbeltzenea. The room was lovely and the location was perfect for exploring the beautiful area. The staff treated me like a friend, offering helpful recommendations and letting me borrow a bike.

The food for breakfast could be improved with more variety.

Matxinbeltzenea is my go-to place in Lesaka. The staff's hospitality, from the first stay with a refreshing drink to the last, keeps me coming back. With amenities like Wi-Fi, car park, TV room, and a pet-free, smoke-free environment, it's perfect for my business trips.

The highlight of my stay was definitely the free WiFi. It was like having an invisible butler, always there to satisfy my internet cravings. I was able to upload all my vacation photos and browse the web effortlessly, feeling like a tech-savvy wizard in the process.

Bunk bed space.

Absolutely fantastic! Huge communal area, comfortable beds, morning sunlight on balcony, friendly local population, excellent nearby breakfast, good showers.

Nothing all excellent.

Beautiful location in a charming village with good and affordable restaurants nearby. The antique look of the hostel adds character, and the owner is friendly and helpful. I was able to borrow a bike and use the free washing machine. The recommended hikes in the mountains were amazing and there were lovely walks to enjoy. a peaceful and nature-filled getaway.

The furniture is quite old and the space between the bunk beds is very low, making it uncomfortable to sit and move around. There were no chairs or tables in the room, which made getting dressed and putting on shoes a hassle.

Great location in a charming village; clean shared bathrooms; friendly and flexible staff; large common space; good recommendations for food.

The location of the hotel is great, with cafes and shops nearby. It is also in the heart of a vibrant village, offering a lively atmosphere. the communal bathrooms are clean and adequate, providing a decent experience.

The bunk beds in the rooms are uncomfortable, with very low space between the upper and lower beds. This can create a claustrophobic feeling and make it difficult to sit or move around comfortably.

The atmosphere of the hostel was absolutely delightful. Staying in Matxinbeltzenea was like being transported into a charming countryside cottage, complete with a cozy terrace perfect for savoring a warm cup of tea on a crisp morning. It was a truly idyllic setting that provided a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.

I had an incredible stay at this lovely hostel in a picturesque village. The owner, Jon, was awesome, friendly, and funny. He even let me borrow his bike and use the washing machine for free. The location was perfect, surrounded by beautiful nature and with great restaurants nearby. I enjoyed the wonderful hikes recommended by Jon, especially the ones up the mountains of Ibardin and Larrun. The hostel may not have had private bathrooms, but the shared facilities were very clean. The beds were comfy and clean as well, although some of the bunk beds were a bit tight. Despite that, I felt safe and welcomed as a family. I would highly recommend this place as a budget-friendly option.
