Above the old town on the hill. Helpful people who run it. Good home-cooked meals.

Truly a beautiful space that’s well taken care of. The owners are amazing caring people and will treat you well. The beds have good sheets on them and the rooms and bathroom are super clean. Book this place you won’t regret it!! Probably the best albergue I’ve been to so far.

Muy bonito, tranquilo y agradable lugar donde te sentirás en casa. Te reciben con una sonrisa y agua para calmar tu sed. Unas personas gratas y atentas en todo. Súper recomendado!

The location of this albergue comes right after you climb and descend...a lot. You are tired. You are sore. The set up and staff are amazing - what a delightful, comfortable and gracious space to stay for the night. Amazing food - laundry service - rooms with 4 people only in them - Please book at this Albergue - you won't regret it.

I’m happy that I stayed here. Grocery store close by and the house that serves as the albergue is warm and spacious. Pilgrim meal was good as well.

Rooms of 4-6 beds, top bunks a bit high. Nice common space and very friendly hosts. Only one female and one male bathroom do or 13 people but we managed- 2 unisex would have been better.

We were provided a really good pilgrim meal. Unfortunately, the main Camino bypasses this section of town so it's hard to get to if you walk all the way around the city. The bunk beds are huge and easy to sit up if you're on the bottom. Staff is really friendly!

Lovely place with lovely people. They also serve great food and are very close to the start of this camino and to the Frances. The centre of town is only a 10 min stroll away. Beds are provided with clean sheets and pillow cases. Also the is a dryer here for those wet days.

So friendly, warm and welcoming. The bunks are really comfy and everywhere looks fresh airy and clean. Bunks are with fresh cotton sheets so super comfy. We had the best lentil soup on the whole Camino and delicious quiche. Food was excellent and served in a nice dining room. The only negative is its slightly out of the old city but only a 10 minute walk and actually closer to Camino for the mornings, walking. I'd say it's a 9/10.
