The best place I’ve stayed at so far on the Camino, super family vibe and the meal that you prepare and eat together is great. 100% recommend, kindest hosts!

This place is special.
Very warm and welcoming people, they offered help and a hugg which I appreciated. After a long hike there is nothing better then this community. Amazing service and you sleep perfect on the mattress. Must see!

This Albergue is run by wonderful volunteers. There were 52 of us last night. We slept on cots lined up in the floor and it was absolutely perfect. There was a communal meal that we all prepared together and a candlelight sharing time in the choir loft after dinner. This is a very special place!

This donativo is open! Very similar to the one in Grañon. Mattresses on floor, communal dinner, and reflection service afterward. Hospitaleros were very kind.

This is closed for the time being for COVID. I would recommend calling ahead to the next town and booking something because many places are at half capacity. August 2021

Wonderful super unique experience, volunteer run with communal dinner and breakfast, opportunity to share about your Camino but no pressure to talk if you don’t want to. Mats on floor as described, warm shower, most clothes dried overnight near the fireplace. Recommend!!

As always a pleasure to arrive here. This is a MUST experience!

Camino de Sant…

Truly unique experience in the camino. The sleeping is on mats on the floor, the meal prepared together and the washing up too. Although I am not religious, it was lovely to join the pilgrims Mass and then the reflexion and meditation before bed. Amazing place
