However, if arriving with suitcases it is advisable to take a short taxi ride.

Bus no’s 26 and 28 go to calle Okendo (Okendo Street) and stop literally a few metres from the apartments.
BY CAR
Upon reaching San Sebastian take the exit marked SAN SEBATIAN-AMARA. Follow the signs for the centre CENTRO/ERDIA heading alongside the river. Upon passing the second bridge on the right hand side, take the exit marked ‘centro’ on the left. This exit forks into two: going left takes you to calle Etxaide (Etxaide Steet), which crosses the Avenida and then becomes calle Okendo (Okendo street) and thus literally brings you to the apartments. Going right takes you to the Paseo de los Fueros and directly to the entrance to the Okendo and Boulevard carparks where you can park your car.
