This place is the true soul of the Camino. The owner welcomes everyone with disarming generosity. He speaks several languages, which makes communication incredibly easy for international travelers. The highlight of the stay is definitely the community dinner: delicious local flavors and an absolutely fantastic atmosphere. What makes this place even more special is the garden - away from the chaos of the road, it's an oasis of peace where you can relax on sun loungers or hammocks. It's the perfect place to regenerate body and soul after a long day of walking. You can see that the owner puts all his soul into caring for pilgrims. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Just spent the most amazing night at Casa Catolico.....run by a superb couple of pilgrims who really understand what fellow pilgrims need.....space to be quiet, space to breathe, space to relax but also to come together and enjoy fantastic food prepared on site. Had the most fantastic slow cooked pork and rice. This place is going to be hard to beat.....thank you ❤️

An amazing experience. Incredible host. Donation based. Included a group dinner and breakfast. Wonderful garden setting, comfortable beds and rooms. Can’t say enough about this wonderful Albergue. Be generous with donation. Whatever you give, you’ll leave feeling that it wasn’t enough. Highly recommend!

Der Gastgeber ist sehr zuvorkommend und es ist mit kalten Getränken, einem frisch gekochten Abendessen und Frühstück für das leibliche Wohl gesorgt. Auch ein veganes Essen war möglich.
Die Zimmer sind sauber und ordentlich. Hinter dem Haus ist ein schöner Hof mit Liegestühlen, der zum Entspannen einlädt.

The albergue may appear closed, but if you contact the hospitaleros they will most likely accommodate you. I stayed there 4 nights ago and although Carlos was walking the Camino himself, he gave me the contact details of his brother Miguel who let me in.
