DORMERO Albergue San Miguel

I arrived late after a long day… and the reception staff told me they were full initially. A kind member of the staff reminded reception that they’d opened a new private room that same day, which they offered to me at half discount, given the late hour. While I can’t comment on the shared dorms, I can say the staff were very friendly and accommodating! For that reason alone, I’d recommend this albergue to anyone passing through Hospital de Órbigo.

Beds are hard and old. Springs or something looks it kept poking me all night. Shower only had tepid water that you had to keep pressing every 15 seconds to stay on

The private room was actually a set of bunk beds. No sheets- just paper cover. Towel was old and thin. Bathroom was shared with everyone on the floor and down the hall. Room was cold with no heat. Not a choice I would pick again.

The place is beautiful, and is decorated with Pilgrim made art work. They don't serve dinner, the breakfast was fruit, bread, coffee and a pastry.

I had the best laundry service in the Camino so far.
Wash and dry for €8 and they did themselves and returned everything folded! Amazing!

Lovey place, friendly hosts, great terrace and kitchen and art. We stayed in the 4 bed dorm and it was way too hot and not very ventilated. Avoid during hot season. 18 bed dorm has a couple of big windows and much cooler.

Very welcoming and accommodating host.

I was greeted by Arturo in a calm & welcoming manner as he welcomed me inside from the rain storm outside. This is a lovely place with all you need. It’s a very calm environment & lights go out at 10pm and are turned on at 6am. Arturo & his wife are so sweet & I loved being there. It’s very clean and comfortable.

Such a treat to stay at this wonderful albergue. Very friendly, thoughtful and accommodating host. Clean, neat with everything you need. Love all the art.

The hosts go out of their way to provide comfort and tranquility. Relaxing music plays and their is beautiful pilgrim artwork everywhere- and you can create and leave a piece yourself. Cozy and right at the edge of town!

Here in 2019 and again in April 2023z. Clean, quiet, attentive owners. No dinner but a simple dinner.

Very kind and gentle host. One of the best Albergues on the Camino.

You quickly get the impression that this isn’t the owner having rules for his albergue but rather him having the albergue for the rules.

Other than that, it’s a gimmick albergue with a painting easel, about average beds, below average power plug distribution, and ok kitchen and exterior rest area.

The owner Alturo was a breath of fresh air helping us. He made sure after a super long walk I could rest and then check in, he tended to my blisters, offered me another pair of shoes, greeted us in the morning with lots of coffee and you could just tell he was happy to have us.
Large room of bunks with lockers and seperate bathrooms. Yes there are some signs up asking to clean up after yourself (see lots of rules comment in previous post) but sadly some ppl need to be told this stuff.
Would highly recommend!

This albergue has a lovely character, truly feels like a refuge. Owners are from Venezuela and they are both very nice. No bar/cafe, but a full kitchen to use and a real supermarket less than a half mile away. Peaceful garden to sit in, eat in, hang laundry. Quiet music playing and art! The walls are covered with art created by pilgrims, and materials to create are readily available. We were happy to find this oasis of tranquility.

The best place on the Camino. Clean and comfortable, nice, atmosphere super, friendly staff.

The hosts are such nice people, very informative and friendly. I felt so welcome and enjoyed my whole time here! Such a nicely decorated accomodation. Would definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful time here. Very charming. The hosts were wonderful. Because of the festival they kept the doors open later than usual to allow us to participate. Very clean and welcoming.

Rules are everywhere: don't do this, don't go there, sit there and so on, plus the shower was cold, not only for me but also for other pilgrims. It's a nice place, but average bulk beds and rooms. Also cold to sleep coz the building is old. Thanks.

Very nice place but owners place too many rules for a private Albergue. Amazing village. Fox.
