It is a simple basic hostel and it serves its purpose. There is a small breakfast in the morning.

3 dorms with 10bunk beds, windows can be opened on all sides, makes it comfy in warm weather. Good morning spirit with communal breakfast
Very kind hospitaleros.
They told us the beds never fill up👍

Convenient for the evening in Irun. Otherwise large dormitory, noisy because it's in town next to the road. Bathrooms and kitchen ok.

While not a glamorous facility, this first stop on our Norte route was a pleasant experience because the volunteers made us welcome, answered all our questions and met all our needs, and maintained the space well. Though spartan, it is clean and well-managed—one of the best municipal albergues we’ve experienced.

L'auberge ouvre à 16h et est un Donativo. Très propre, ventilateurs efficaces au plafond. Petit déjeuner de 6h30 à 7h30. Sur le chemin. Merci encore aux volontaires et à leur gentillesse.

Run by very dedicated volunteers. Lots of beds in one room. Gets hot in summer! Bathrooms are limited but no complaints. Great terrace and good company. Donation based.

The albergue accepted guests even before 16 pm. The albergue is clean and spacious with a big kitchen and really good facilities.
For my first stop really amazing

A full day of travel from Lisbon brought me to the Albergue at 21:30 pm. I was welcomed by Jesus and made to feel a valued guest. The rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are plentiful and clean. Breakfast was appreciated. Highly recommended.

such a great vibe starting from here! all the pilgrims are so friendly and I can only hope this sets the tone for the rest of the camino. the hospitaleros I dealt with were a delight! if you don't know any Spanish, though, you may struggle a bit. It's all pretty intuitive, but knowing some Spanish definitely helps. Kitchen closes at 9pm. Lights out at 10pm. wake-up at 6am. breakfast 6:30-7:30am. all out by 8am.

Came through in March and was a great place to stay. Breakfast included and very good hospitalero. Donativo respected (they are really not judgemental on how much you give.) Thumbs up as a solo female traveller.

Lovely, personable, and helpful staff. Easy check in and to get certification. Disposable sheet and pillow cover provided at bed. Coffee in the morning and breakfast! Also a donation bin to put the extra clothes weighing down your pack ;)

Sehr freundliche und zuvorkommend. Sauber und alles das was man benötigt. Es wurden an dem Abend überall neue starke Ventilatoren aufgebaut. Leider ist es sehr laut aufgrund der umliegenden Straßen.
