Nice and quiet located near the river street restaurants. Super clean, nice patio and sitting area. Washer, dryer, or hand washing station. I’m glad I stayed here instead of a more expensive hotel. The birds tweeting on the cliffs were a pleasant way to wake up at dawn.

Things to notice :
Most of the floors are uneven
the guys shower are fine but the waterflow is slighty slow and not that hot
I came for the view and i wasnt disappointed (u're by the cliffs, there's no traffic noise, birds are singing yeah!)
The neighboor seems slighty abandonned (there is a real nice merchant street close though)
No bunk bed in my 4 place room
The sharedolace downstairs is nice, but not so much space
There is not a real hotplate to cook on ur own....
For 15e seems a bit expensive

We stayed at the Nido de Cigüeña which is on the way out of town. No meals are offered but it is well equipped for you to prepare your own quick meals. There are plenty of restaurants, grocery shops and pharmacy near by. We loved the clean room, private bathroom and abundance of hot water for a shower! Loved the ambiance and the professionalism of the host. Highly recommend.

I decided to treat myself to a private room here because I’m a light sleeper and needed to recoup some rest after the snorathon that is dormitory life. Alas, the walls were so thin I could here the guys in the next room snoring. Also tried to no avail avoiding the multiple bed springs which were trying to impale me. When I ask at the desk for my key, I was told there were no keys- accompanied by a look that said, pilgrims don’t steal, get some Camino spirit! When I asked for a blanket (it was real cold) I notice that the store room was secured like a bank vault. Think they were just saving on the costs of locks. They also saved on the cost of toilets, there was o my one for the boys and one for the girls. There was some security though, as the man reassured me we would all be locked in at night- luckily there was no fire, and I’m not claustrophobic.

Ha an amazingly efficient website for booking, not seen one anywhere as good as this.

Have stayed a few times, certainly one of the best I've found on the Camino. Was planning to stay here this time, September 2021, after i was there in September 2020, but my plans changed. They have the best albergue website I've ever used. So I made a reservation but then had to cancel it: all very quick and easy. Recommended. And there's any excellent restaurant just round the corner.
(I'm sure they could make a living setting up websites for other albergues, most of which are a complete nightmare and not worth bothering with.)
Great washing and drying facilities as well.
