Looks like you'll have to go to Trip Advisor or the likes to get some more info, no takers here.

I did hear a piece on Bilbao and San Sebastian on some Irish radio chat last week. Can't remember which show it was now! Perhaps Brendan O'connor show?

It's been a few years since I've been, but a lovely city.

The museum is great to visit. Take a wander in around the old town, https://www.bilbaoturismo.net/BilbaoTurismo/en/casco-viejo-area/casco-viejo-old-town. There are plenty of bars that do Pinxtos (Tapas) and the food and wine are generally very good in most places.
