Albergue Espíritu Santo

Easy check in process,, only some Spanish but spoke slowly and so I got the gist. No bunk beds!!!! Gender separated rooms with just single beds. Wifi available in the rooms. Huge dining area with a normal sized kitchen, probably not big enough for the amount of people. Nuns were lovely. Glad I stayed here. Note you can't make a reservation, price is still 10€

Very helpful, kind, welcoming hosts. Good kitchen set up. Comfy stay.
Downside: electrical sockets just in a couple of places, not spread amongst the beds. Plentiful, but all in one corner of the room.

Sister Maria checked us in, very welcoming and explained everything in Spanish which we surprisingly understood much of what she said! She enunciated and spoke slowly to help us learn! Giant room with ~12-15 single beds nicely spaced, no bunks! Maria gave us directions to the pharmacy and invited us to join them for prayer services. This was beautiful and some of us joined in singing songs. Her message was touching (interpreter also sang for us)
The sisters tucked us in and said goodnight at 10pm. Very restful slumber! Oh! And the showers were wonderful!! They even had a blow dryer which was a treat!

No bunks only beds. Spotless room good showers full kitchen facilities kind hosts

Espiritu Santo was a great place to stay with comfy single beds, showers and toilets just outside my door and a fully functioning kitchen. Unfortunately the nuns were out of town at a retreat so no singing was happening. The only negative comment is the albergue allowing a group of 32 to stay which shut out many single travellers. They also commandeered the kitchen for hours making it very hard for others to make a meal. But that is becoming the nature of the Camino the more popular it becomes as a holiday tour destination by tour companies especially in Asia.

I got sick while in Carrion de Los Condes and the hotel where I was staying didn’t have room for me to stay another night. They kindly called the sisters here who took me in and gave me a private room with an en-suite bathroom so I could rest. Their kindness brought me to tears. I am so grateful. October 2024

On the whole, this is a better than average facility.
Let down by the showers.
Nothing that a competent plumber couldn't put right easily and cheaply.
Why is it that so many albergues have broken shower fittings and do nothing about them.
While they're at it some hooks for clothes while showering would be good.

The best beds on the entire Camino Frances, and no bunk beds! Everything was very clean, very bright, and with plenty of space. The nuns were very caring and helpful.

My experience was great. Very heartfelt ladies (nuns?) taking care of the albergue. The building is big and a bit institutional, but definitely practical and spacious. The kitchen was great. The prayer/music moment was nice.

Excellent hostel. There are beds and not bunk beds, several showers with a dry area for clothes, a very good kitchen, many tables in the dining room. It is worth it. The only drawback was the lady who checked in must have been stressed and treated a pilgrim who asked about the rooms very badly. Anyway, I recommend it.

The correct address for this albergue is Callejon San Juan 3. I did a wrap around trying to find the place and the nuns didn’t know any English when I called, so a bit difficult to get directions from them.

It is the perfect space for the community spirit. The rooms are spacious and single beds, not crammed. Plenty of areas to hang out with other pilgrims. Plenty of shower stalls and toilets, and there’s soap!! Great value for the money.

Super clean albergue with single beds, the showers are only lukewarm but that’s the only bad thing I could say about it. Stay here!

Clean, single beds, nice hosts, only microwave in the kitchen and not other ways of cooking

This was a great place to stay. No bunk beds and they were a. Ice size, very comfortable. Close to all the things in the town. The sisters were very nice. A good place to wash and dry clothes. Had a great kitchen and eating area. Showers are separated by gender but good water pressure and hot water. The town has a medical clinic should it be needed, and good places to eat.

We could not make reservations but they have more than enough space. ( like 70 beds). Very nice lady running the reception area. Showed us our beds, hache us the paper sheets. There was blankets provided. Cafeteria area with microwave. Shops close by. Restaurants also close by. Warm showers, clean restrooms. Prayer time at 5:30 pm. Mass nearby at 7 pm. Washer available for 4 euros and dry out on the lines. Overall great warm cozy place to sleep.

I tried today, she say no reservar

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Single beds with lots of space, separate bathrooms and toilets. 9 in our room (Africa). Everything a short walk away. Town more lively than most.

The nuns were so kind. They even came to check on pilgrims in the night. Well equipped, comfortable place. No dinner but town is full of options. Recommend!!

This is a great place to stay. Clean, single beds. Price June 2022 is 10 eur.
