I had a single room. You hear the noise from others extremely and the Spanish guests especially talk a lot in the hallway. Often in groups. Quite rude! Check-in was super fast. To get to the next women's toilet I had to walk quite far. Clean would be an overstatement. And the women's hygiene bins have no lids. The shower is a challenge. After 30 seconds the light goes out and only comes back on when someone else enters the room. The location is somewhat outside the center and it takes 15/20 minutes to get to the center and it's also VERY STEEP on a mountain.

We had a shared dormitory the first night and it was fine. The second night we had a private room and it was great. The store/ cafe was great to have since it was a hike to the city center for breakfast. The check in line is seriously slow! On the upside, we met nice people and made fun connections in that hour and a half.

A bit far from the city center but with reasonably-sized dorms with sheets and quilts, and a lockable closet. Perfect for one night.

I shared a double room with a friend. Toilets clean and separate showers also very good. Large kitchen, mini supermarket and an ok breakfast. Would recommend this place for sure.

took over an hour waiting to check in when i thought it would be quick like at every other place. humongous waste of time in a city i spent months walking to and only have 2 days in! really really frustrating.

Beautiful building! Unfortunately no longer usable via the stairs! Single room sparsely furnished! Very cold, no heating! Kitchen - despite pointing it out, the dish cloth was not changed for 3 days - unhygienic! Would not book here again! No telephone reservations possible!

Nice place! Not far from the city center.
Separate beds, with your own closet ect👍
Labyrint and park in front of the building:)

Giant albergue with all facilities.
It has a huge kitchen, large common room, small café, laundry, large shared rooms and also private rooms. It has a small shop where you can buy food and drinks.

Huge hostel of course but still really quite since it is a bit uphill and therefore not near any busy street.
The private room for 1 person was 28€ - in other Albergue that is what you pay for a bed in the dormitory.
The receptionist were really nice and explained everything I needed with me in English and joked with with me for a bit. Checking in can take a while because it I only 2 receptionists for more than 200 people staying there so maybe bring some time.
You will have a wonderful view at Santiago.
They have what they call a supermarket in the basement but it is more like an expensive kiosk. So it is ok for a snack or breakfast which they offered but otherwise go to a real supermarket.
I would definitely recommend this Albergue if you want to have a little bit of quiet and privacy after arriving in Santiago

It's not the norm
I don't know her name
One of those mysterious things--she was so rude and uncaring towards me.
Not so if you were spanish, I noted.
I held my grace thanks to the camino.
I cancelled my third day
So...that was my choice
Ita good location
Clean

This place is huge. Feels a bit institutional, but very good as far as hostels go. Clean; efficient check-in; nice bath and showers; good grocery and common area in the basement. Location somewhat removed from middle of town, but still recommended.

I stayed in single room, shared bathroom. You have a basin in the room and small window.
If you need to go cathedral and city centre frequently (especially in summer), you will get sweaty as it is 20mins walk one way, up and down the hill.
Downstairs come with laundry, canteen, shop and cooking area. I recommend to get food from city centre, e.g. Carrefour express. Then you can save money doing own cooking.

We stayed in 2M - 006 .
My wife was awakened by the bugs crawling on her at 3:00.
We found about 20 bugs in the room and left it immediately. Washed and dried all our clothes before leaving the Albergue .

Huge facility with single beds in the dormitory and offers single rooms too. Clean. Not too far from the train station (20 min walk). To get around the building takes awhile because it’s so big. The basement floor has a shop, the kitchen and laundry area. The floors above feel like a 1950’s hospital or sanitarium. This place has spooky vibes. I would stay here again but I wish I’d been told that this place felt like it could be haunted. I guess that’s what people mean when they say ‘historical’.

Location is fab- 22€ per night for a shared dorm - I finished my Camino 3 days ahead of schedule so stayed here at the end till my flight
The staff on reception are awesome and will help with anything - Lisa in particular is an angel
There are a few washers and dryers but it’s like laundry wars as there’s a lot of people and not really a way to queue your loads up - however there’s a launderette just round the corner what’s only 3€

This was a wonderful accommodation. Minutes walking distance to the cathedral but yet a reasonable path away to ensure tranquility.
The building itself is charming and stunning. Provision of private rooms with bed/wardrobe and a sink; was a delightful treat instead of sharing dorm space (they have that as well and the price difference isn't much between dorm and private room.
Staff were very friendly . Fontaine ,(fountain in English) was a fabulous host and super professional at her job.

Huge, historical building with character and great views. Single rooms are pretty good value. Facilities were practical but the amount of people and groups made the experience a bit impersonal. Depending on your luck, your room might be even close or far from bathrooms and other facilities.

There are seveeal faciluties.
I enjoyed stay here.
This is my Best of Best Albergue in Camino de Santiago French Road.

Rooms were basic but clean. Showers and bathrooms were also clean. Nice small grocery store on the bottom floor with good food selection and even some gift items to take home. I would definitely stay here again.
