We ran here from Orio and arrived by 2:50pm, we went straight to the tourist office (don’t go to the albergue if it’s before 2pm or after 3pm) waited outside until 3 to check in. 8e each and I think they accept only card payment. We got bed number 23th and 24th. And I think by 5 it was completely full because A LOT of people want to stay here. If you missed this, you can go up the mountain a bit more to go to Izarbide for another 5km

The Albergue is okay by itself. But the whole process is painfull. A lot of people want to be here, so you need to be early. The registration takes a very long time. At night you are disturbed by the traffic lights (the horrible sound) and trains. It is full of other pilgrims with no air conditioning, so it is very hot at night.

Checked in at tourist information and got given code and bed was assigned. Excellent cafe across the road which was also open early

The albergue is easy to find at the train station, but access can be a bit tricky;
Before 2pm you have to go to the local turist information. It's located next to the church, and signs are easy enough to follow.
From 2pm to 3pm the turist information is closed, but the albergue is now staffed.
After 3pm the turist information is open again, and the albergue prefer that you go there for payment and such.

The place well staffed and the facilities are good. Trains rarely pass the station at night, but if you have a room facing the street instead, a local traffic light will act as your alarm clock at 4am if you have the window open.

Good location. Clean €8. Can not hear the trains even though staying above the train station. A few places within a few blocks to eat.

Simple albergue with very kind hospitaleros. Somewhat odd as it is located in the train station. If you arrive late, go straight to the door on the far end of the station and buzz in. May have seen a bed bug but I am not certain and would stay again.

Register and pay at tourist office- super fun albergue. Only a mini fridge, no kitchen

Use your earplugs and take the elevators down in town, is a bit easier on your knees for the last part.

Interesting that it is located above the train station, making it easy to find.

Arrive early, the albergue filled by around 5pm. After that they turned people away, who had to walk 5/6km to the next place after a hard day. Arrived on a Sunday, no need to call police, just show up at albergue.

Very very cold. Disposable sheets, no blanket. Hot water ran out around 5/6pm. No cooking facilities.

Lovely town beside the beach, last chance to swim in the sea for several days!

I stayed there on late Aug. Pretty crowded so the beds are full early and many pilgrims don't get a place. You need to register at the tourist office. The hospitalero charged me 8 euros and he was nice but with an attitude as if we was the owner and not a volunteer (power issues). The place is in the train station but still is quite at night. No kitchen. There's washing machine.
