Insider Tip

BBK Bilbao Good Hostel

BBK Bilbao Good Hostel is a bit different from many of the hostel's you'll find in Spain. There's an eclectic mix of people staying here in basic but comfortable rooms. The prices are good but the location is a bit removed from the center of the city. This is a great option for larger groups as they have the space and amenities a group might require.

The Facilities

Dorms

This hostel has dorms that sleep either 4, 6, 8, or 10 people in co-ed or female only rooms. The rooms are clean and generally comfortable with basic beds and security lockers for your belongings. All of the rooms have keycard access and bed linens are provided free of charge.

Private Rooms

Twin and triple private rooms are also available for guests who want a little space to themselves. The rooms offer basic furnishings, and like the rest of the hostel are very clean and reliable.

Bathrooms

Rooms with either shared or ensuite bathrooms are available. The lights are on motion detectors. They also have industrial level hand dryers, which some guests find annoying in the middle of the night. The showers are also on timers, which is frustrating if you're hoping to take a longer shower. Hot water is also limited to certain hours.

Common Areas

Guests can take advantage of the hostel's computer room and game room if they're hoping to catch up with friends back home or relax in a comfortable setting. There's also three outdoor terraces where you can take in the views of the river and soak up some sun.
