Absolutely gorgeous!
What a setting. This is definitely worth the scenic route. This albergue is quaint and rustic with such a lovely outdoor area for pilgrims. The hosts are beautiful and I had the entire place to myself. I had dinner across the road at the hotel which was divine! This is a must see/stop.

Olga is simply wonderful at everything from her welcome to her caring personality to her marvellous cooking. Her paella simply stunning. The beds perfect, the bathrooms clean and the showers hot. Add the hammocks in the pretty courtyard and you could not ask for more. Great value and great Camino experience.

Olga and Manuel were wonderful hosts and the garden was so lovely. The beds were very comfortable. Had a great night’s sleep.
We had the best meal of our entire Camino. Olga is a fabulous cook!

Really nice place. Small and with s unique atmosphere were you feel welcome. The courtyard is inspiring and fascinating and Olga and her husband do their utmost to make you feel welcome. We even had live music after our community dinner which by the way was excellent.

One of my favourite afternoons here, spent in a hammock with a beer & soft music playing in the background. Beautiful owner, home cooked meal, decor - divine energy. Highly recommended.

This place was so peaceful and homey, I loved it. I was planning on staying 2 nights in León but decided to leave at noon instead and walked 8k to this albergue. What a wonderful decision!
I spent the entire evening on a hammock in the beautiful courtyard looking at the flowers and listening to the chill music they had playing. Then smelling the delicious dinner that the hostess made. The food was amazing. The hostess was a very cool laid back lady and she walks the Camino every winter.
The place was clean and lovely. There was a dog and 2 cats. I did my laundry in the machine for 3 Euro. She had bread, butter, jelly, coffee, tea, hot cocoa, and a toaster set up for the morning. She programmed the coffee maker to brew at a time of our choosing.

This is a 300 year old barn. It is hard to believe. The owner has created a very welcoming, clean, efficiently-run albergue. The meal was delicious. It is a unique space and the owner is delightful and accommodating.

El Pajar has everything the pilgrim needs (and wants): well-equipped dining area, a hearty communal meal, welcoming hosts, and a comfortable space for gathering. We stayed in the private room across from the dormitory, which was lovely and had two comfortable beds. A return to peaceful pilgrim life after Leon!
