Camino de Sant… (not verified)

Absolutely wonderful- peaceful, friendly, welcoming and comfortable. Will never forget the warm hospitality we received from Sandra and how it made us feel. Practical facilities- good bike storage, washing service and delicious meals. Relaxed chats with multinational pilgrims. Central location for all services. Highly recommended!

I stayed here last night in a single room. It was great value for €20. Everything everyone has said here about how helpful Sandra is...is true. She is absolutely brilliant. Her English is limited but she talks slowly and is extremely patient. She went out if her way to help me get booked up for my next 2 nights in Villafranca and Torremejla and provided me and my friend Moon from South Korea with a beautiful dinner and breakfast. Please stay here and take time out to meet Sandra and enjoy this wonderful Albergue

Camino de Sant…

The hospitalera Sandra was very friendly. The albergue wasn’t busy so she gave me a 2 bed room :)
Unfortunatelly I suppose because there was only a few of us, there wasn’t dinner that night (Sunday)or breakfast. Also the churros stand on the road wasn’t open. (Monday 9:25 am)
But I don’t mind neither of it, the kindness and private shower was a good enough consolation :)

Appears to no longer exist

Camino de Sant…

Albergue now run as private one and couple who runs it provide also pilgrim menu and breakfast and can do your laundry too. Nice and roomy, in old building. And only for 12€!
If you stay there, don’t miss the small churreria (churros stand) run by Julia about 100 m from albergue right on Camino, open from 8 am and really the best churros one can eat, all home-made! Good energetic food before a new day’s walk!

Camino de Sant…

Run by an incredibly dedicated couple. Sandra was the friendliest and most patient hospitalera you can imagine, the menu was tasty and a lot of food even including wine and chupito. Nice patio. Nightstand at every bed, always appreciated
