The lady who ran it was lovely and the convenience of the bar downstairs was great. The beds were ok but it was very hot that night so it was hard to sleep.

We stayed here because the price said it included dinner and breakfast. Dinner was a choice of frozen pizza or tortilla. When I went down at 7:40 to look at breakfast everything was locked and no one was there.

The beds we’re comfortable and not people but the bathrooms smelled. Overall just a disappointment.

Very nice people - good bunkbeds and not overcrouded per room.
Very good value for money - and nice facilities.
Book it😎

Nice welcome, €15 cost, which essentially just gets you a bed for the night. Sheets are provided but not towels. The bathrooms have a shower and toilet in each one and there are 2 for each floor - 18-20 pilgrims at a time - which is very difficult if there is someone in the shower or when you all wake up at once needing the loo in the morning! There are no doors on the rooms so if you have a noisy dorm next door, everyone suffers. Prices in the bar are quite high. There is a restaurant 700m away (near the municipal albergue). Wish we’d stayed at the municipal albergue.

Cost is 15 €

Lits au 3e étage, bien lorsqu’on veut couper une longue étape en deux, mais pas d’épicerie, surtout pour repos, employé parle espagnol très peu anglais alors ils utilisent Google translate, menu du jour sur place, la bière la plus chère du camino 3,50 euros

Cold, damp place with overpriced and not great food. Best thing is the buzz of being with other pilgrims in the last stage and terrace area in the sun.

We received a lovely welcome, super clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the old building and peaceful garden.
