This donation albergue is truly excellent.
The structure, though not large, is absolutely comfortable and welcoming. The hospitalero is kind and attentive. Everyone dines together with good and abundant food, prepared by his colleague, and then everyone talks together with great cordiality. Highly recommended!

This map and the arrows lead you along the railroad. Other painted arrows tell you to cross the rail. Looks like are working on the rail to make it accessible for trains.
