Albergue Casa Barbadelo

July 2019
This is a nice almost hotel. Does not feel like an albergue at all and doesn’t have much camino spirit. The facilities are all quite nice so no complaints. The night I was there was very busy with non-pilgrim events and we had a lot of trouble getting food (priority was to non pilgrims and we had to wait hours to order), and it was noisy into the night. 10-12€ per bed, no kitchen, WiFi only in the main building.

Last minute Wow. had planned to stay at casa de carmen as we did before. This place is a huge upgrade, rooms for 4 was $60 and amazing. the pool, gardens and food was awesome.

will come back in future

Woken by our room door opening and a bright flashlight shining into the room around the beds at 11.30pm. Afterwards there was loud chatting and laughter right outside the door even after I waited 15 minutes for it to stop, tapped at the glass to get the girls’ attention and signalled for them to be quiet. Chatter and laughter continued unabated. It was after 1 a.m. when our door opened again and two girls with backpacks came in, turned on the shower (with loud extractor fans) which they then turned off but then went loudly to wash in the toilet before climbing into their bunks.

It's a very big albergue: it hosted a group of 70 young persons when we were there. Clean, nice room of 8 bunkbeds with wc and two showers. There is a swimming pool, young people did use it. Food and breakfast good.
It's the only bar at the village, so a little noisy in the evening, but the rooms are not right close to bar, so it did not bother much. The bunkbeds are ok, but a bit difficult to climb to top bed.

One of the best albergues sofar! Pool is great, nice terrace for just sittning, meeting or eating - good food too during the whole afternoon/ evening.

We reserved a room for three of us so that we could get a good night sleep. It was beautiful. Sheets, blankets and comfy bed. Warm shower and clean towels!!! Highly recommended! Yummy meal
