Do yourself a favor and don’t stay here. It’s is cold and damp, smells like mold. The bathroom is extremely unappealing. I’m not sure why this place is 15€, it should be 8€ at most. Go to the next town if you must

Awful

March 2024: This place was SO SO cold, much worse than other unheated places, probably because of the stone walls. It was like an ice box and everyone was freezing. No places to hang-out but outside. In generel this places lacks atmosphere… its “cold” in every way.

I stayed in San Juan de Ortega last night and this Albergue is now open again for the new season. I’ve stayed here a couple of times before, both times the ladies’ bathroom floor was flooded. I think it’s a drainage problem.
I stayed in El Descanso de San Juan last night…highly recommended.

Awful place. Dirty and no food unless you order by 4.00 pm. Seriously lacking basic facilities.

Dreadful beds and crammed together. Next morning I walked into the next village and wished I'd stayed there!

Back to the basica - outlets huddled along one wall, lots of beds in one room, and small showers and bathrooms. No food or kitchen

Cold and basic. Only one toilet block open. There was nowhere else to sleep so I stayed, lots of other pilgrims walked on. I actually slept ok.

The potential for this to be such a great experience on our Camino was huge. But we were sadly disappointed. The rooms resembled military barracks from the Cold War and the facilities had clearly not been cleaned for some time. The mattresses were tired, dirty and smelly and the place reeked of some form of insecticide when we entered. If there had been any other available options we would have left on the spot. Zero stars from us.
