This alburge has some of the kindest hosts and most wonderful food on the Camino. My wife and I loved our stay here. We were in a private room with a shared bathroom but we noticed that the dorm area was very spacious. The beds were wonderful and the alburge was very clean. The owner and his staff were incredibly kind and they made a wonderful 4 course vegetarian dinner that included a delicious paella! There were only 10 pilgrims that stayed here the night we stayed. We were so amazed that there were so many empty beds in the dorm area. The jardin is a wonderful place to relax with a glass of wine as other pilgrims pass by on their way further along the way. The owner shared an amazing story of his Camino experience and how it led him to own this alburge. He's a sweet gentleman. We highly recommend staying here for those that want a special experience!

A charming albergue with kind, friendly staff. A large well-ventilated dorm room on the entry level and clean, simple private rooms (with and without bathroom) on the lower floor. Pleasant front garden and verandah for relaxing after a day’s walking. Excellent communal dinner with four courses including a vegetarian paella on the night we stayed. Great breakfast too, with delicious churros. Highly recommended.

Dorm was one big room but it wasn’t crowded (and a bit cheaper than usual)

Food was fantastic. The only four course menu I have had ;) salad, soup, vegetarian paella, crepes d for desserts. Delicious and a bargain for €12. People were taking away leftovers for tomorrow.

Hospitlero very friendly and helpful: fixed someone’s bike, arranged a taxi for someone who didn’t speak Spanish

I stayed here last night (as the only pilgrim) after walking from Mansilla de las Mulas. I’d planned to stay in León but the weather was so good I walked on and arrived after dark.
Anna, the Hospitalera, was so welcoming and cooked me a delicious dinner while I showered and then served it in the cozy dining room with log burner lit. Even though I was the only person staying Anna chatted away to keep me company and then gave me a big hug before I went to bed.
One tip, there was no breakfast offered and none of the bars had opened by 8am, so it was a 15km walk to Hospital de Orbigo before I found a cafe open (maybe pack a banana or some biscuits to keep you going ‘til then…if you’re walking out of season).

I stayed here as the only pilgrim at all (start November), which at first seemed weird, but because of the hosts being so nice it was actually super fine. The hostess cooked me a delicious 3 course vegetarian menu for 12EUR, which I enjoyed in their cozy living room with the fire on.
Beds a bit old, and not the best, but the place is fine!

When we arrived, we were the youngest people here. The next oldest was, I think, 49 and too young for the crowd. The food was good, but considering there is no bar and they are serving whole vegetarian burgers next door, also not special.

The other two albergues are more suited to a drink after the day’s walk, but this is not the worst stay on the Camino.

A great case of "don't judge a book by its cover." This place is easy to judge on its initial offerings. Quiet town, old beds, not many outlets. But the meal we had for dinner was the best on the Camino so far. I would come back just for that. What we had was all vegetarian, very fresh, and was the perfect thing before walking 20 miles to Astorga the next day. Do yourself a favor, take the scenic route (which I would identify more as the quiet route compared to the noisy road route down the N-120) and stop into this albergue. You won't regret it.

Our hosts were wonderful. The place was very clean. The dinner was delicious but the beds are very old. We did not sleep well. Perhaps they will replace them soon.
