A great experience

George was incredibly friendly and funny, and did a great job at making us feel welcome. We paid for a bed in the dorm but it happened to be very quiet and he upgraded us to a private room. Very interesting house, it’s quite simple but absolutely amazing considering the price you pay, there’s lots of antique furniture and the place is as charming and enchanting as the town. Can really recommend!

Enjoyed my stay

Right across from the Tourist Office, had an attic room with 3 beds and a full bath to myself 30Euros. It was a nice break, clean, comfortable and blanket. George was a delightful host. A lot of history to this town. It is touristy but many bars/ cafes/ restaurants to choose from. I’m sorry I didn’t have time for the caves 3 Kliks outside of town.

The friendliest place

I stayed at this albergue, and I highly recommend it, the staff is extremely friendly, despite the building being somewhat old, is enchanting just like the town. I really enjoyed my stay and thanks a million times the two guys working at the bar, they are a wealth of knowledge and historians

This was my worst stay off of

This was my worst stay off of the Camino up to this point - at 16.5€ in a shared 33€ bedroom with private bathroom, I would have come better staying in a hotel where they would have let me split the 30€ room with someone else. The place has an antique feel to it, but this also makes it smell of old and the beds move when you switch sides. There's no food available other than coffee and sweets vending machines.
The 2 positives though, are the nice and clean bathroom and the fact that is central.
