Guest Reviews
Hostal Óleo Auto Check-in is strategically positioned near the airport, making it a convenient option for travelers with early or late flights. Situated about 6-15 minutes by car from both downtown Santander and the airport, the location is quite functional for those with a vehicle. Despite its practical proximity to these key points, the hostel itself is located in an industrial area, surrounded by factories and industrial estates. This setting can be both a boon and a drawback: while the industrial environment may appeal to those seeking a quieter, more secluded spot, it has notable downsides, such as noise from nearby factories and passing trains.
Guests have mentioned that being outside the main city center means fewer local amenities and services. However, those who prioritize quick access to the airport and easy car travel to nearby attractions may find the location advantageous. The industrial surroundings aren't the most picturesque and the area’s isolated nature requires guests to rely on taxis or private vehicles to reach more lively and residential parts of Santander.
In summary, Hostal Óleo Auto Check-in offers clean, functional and strategically placed accommodation near the airport, particularly suited for those who have transport and don’t mind an industrial backdrop.

For those desiring a more substantial breakfast, the proximity to excellent restaurants and a café about 15 minutes away added flexibility and options. Guests also mentioned the friendly nature of the breakfast staff, contributing positively to their experience.
However, there are occasional mentions of limitations, such as the coffee capsules that must be used with specific machines and the cafeteria being closed on Sundays. Overall, the emphasis on small breakfast details and the convenient coffee options left a positive impression on many visitors.
