Las habitaciones son muy bonitas y muy cómodas.
El sitio está bastante alejado del centro y el parking hay que pagarlo entre semana (pero como en el resto de lugares de Donosti)

A bit far from the city centre, but still within walking distance (~20 mins). Very dorm -like accommodation, but has pretty much everything you need. Good breakfast buffet with a chef making eggs and bacon to your liking. During weekends the parking right in front of the hotel is free.
It's not centrally located and coming back from the old town at night time we found out it was impossible to get a taxi. But if you don't mind a bit of a walk then it's fine. Our room was one towel short and we had to ask for it from the reception. Not a major issue though. The hotel seems to be converted from a campus/dorm, so it's not particularly charming and for that type of hotel it's quite pricey. But all the hotels in San Sebastian seem to be super expensive, so keeping that in mind Olarain was reasonable.

This is very comfortable accommodation but just be aware that it is a university campus. So it is quite expensive for what you get.
The staff are lovely though and the rooms very comfy.
The location. it takes 35 min to walk into San Sebastián centre. A lovely walk though !

very nice, clean hotel, located in a quiet area. Breakfast is good and you pay according to how much and how many dishes you want to eat. Parking costs €3.60 per day from 9 to 20, the rest being free.
a bit far from the old center

Comfy bed. Nice shower. Reasonable breakfast.
A little over priced for what it was.
Some staff were rude when I checked in.
9.0
I appreciated how comfortable and clean they kept the room. Also, the room had a fantastic view, which I enjoyed immensely.
I would have hoped for more sound-proof rooms, and I could hear my next-door neighbors.
