My friend was totally bedbug bitten last night. It's hot, the mattresses are not great and it was the worst sleep on our Camino. The host is lovely, but it's not worth it.

Steep road from the fascinating Portugalette brudge, not to be missed.Good value for us, 26 euro for bunk in room of 18 ( only half full). Clean, quiet, comfortable. Kitchen basic but had enough crockery, cutlery and two microwaves. Lockers for rucsacs. Free tea bags, milk, sugar and cold brewed coffee ( reheat in microwave). Two toilets, two showers per gender - clean. Thorough welcome, but be aware check in firmly stops at six pm. El Cupido bar perfect good value locals place to eat, and watch the world go by. Friendly friendly town , as is the walk to Pobena.

Very nice hostess, and the facilities were great - hot showers, laundry room, modern kitchen. Would recommend.

It’s run like a military camp. Wish I’d gone to the next town.

Very clean. Great bathrooms (in the women’s restroom: 2 showers and 2 toilets - separated from the sleeping rooms). There is no breakfast nor dinner but there is free coffee and tea. Washer and dryer I think 3 euros each. And you have a locker for your stuff. :)

The facilities are ok. The showers are great, the host is nice and welcoming. But it is stifled with beds and people. And in the morning it’s a complete mess with people packing their stuff.

bless the hospitalera here, Vicky, for letting me stay an extra day when I was too sick to carry on and still charged me the single-night price. The kitchen lacks a stove and oven, but is otherwise well-appointed. They have a washing machine AND dryer, both 3€, and soap is provided. It's amazing that they open at 11am because it's a pretty easy walk from Bilbao and the municipal doesn't open until 3pm. Though it's one of those push-button showers, the water is hot and the bathrooms are clean, as is the albergue overall. The downsides are that the foam mattresses, at least the one on my bed, could definitely use replacing as they're pretty spent. the blankets don't get washed everyday and the mosquitos overnight ate me alive.

They took a reservation by phone. Near a good cafe. Organised. Lockers. Good facilities. Someone to serve you coffee in the morning and just near the trial. Well worth it.

Overall everything was ok. You get a locker for your things. Bed sheets, a pillow and a blanket is provided. Good toilet facilities and showers. Good wifi. Cleaning was also fine.
The host was sweet.
Actually everything was fine for staying there 1 night, but it was not so cozy. Maybe because the energy is different because it is in a city.

Visited April 2022 and settled to be just pilgrims. Doors closed at 22:00. Slept well

This is closed 10/2020. Next Alberque - Onton, 18 km. Great to find out at 4pm.

About half the people staying were homeless and the other half pilgrims. For some reason I was put in the room with the homeless people who snores for more than 12 hours straight and didn’t feel the safest as a single female

Really nice very very clean and very modern inside. Martin is very kind. However there are people who look homeless there too and to be honest they keep different hours to the rest of us. 2 in our 12 person room were up most of the night and banging locker doors every fifteen minutes till 4am. In and out of the room. Never seeming dangerous but we’re drunk.

Friendly, clean and I especially like the crisp, pressed sheets! The only thing missing is a place to hang clothes outside but there’s a washer and dryer which was nice. Recommend!
