They say men and women are separated but men sleep in the women’s area if they’re a married couple. Lots of snoring and impossible to sleep. Plus people wake up super early at 5:30 to get started. The blessing mass in the evening was nice, breakfast is basic but with donation, and everyone that works there is very kind. However, next time I’ll spend a little more money for a better nights rest.

My friends told me I was crazy for going to this albergue because they read horrible reviews about the place, but I am really happy I didn't listen to them because I had a really nice experience. The hospitaleros were really kind and helpful and now I am happy to be able to recommend this albergue to everyone! (Although I am a bit sad that I cannot get a t-shirt saying "survived sleeping in León" as someone did according to a German pilgrims guide, because it didn't feel like surviving but like a very nice experience!)

Very clean and comfortable. Quiet. Friendly hospitaleros. I appreciated the men/women separate sleeping areas. Well located.

…but thank you for last last two comments…they really made me laugh on a day when I needed a bit of a lift. Bless you both for your humour 🙏😊

They close the doors at 10.30pm, that's a positive. However, they are opening them again at 6am and you get woken up by respectless old farts at 5.30am because of this.
Small donativo breakfast.

It's cheap, it's central, it's clean and staff is friendly. Staffs English not so good but.. Matreses are very thin so it's more or less like sleeping on the floor.
