A tiny hamlet between Tosantos and Espinosa del Camino. No services. The stone houses have a weathered dignity, but there's no reason to stop unless you need to adjust your pack.

We had a nice pilgrim menu meal for 12 euros. Included soup with seconds, bread, water, two kinds of wine, chicken with some vegetables, and a choice of dessert, yogurt or an ice cream cone.

Facilities are fine, but the people are the best. Great fun. Food was good. Showers are a little tight, as are the bunks. But still great value.

Great place to stay!
We arrived and were unsure of what to expect.
The rooms are clean and comfortable. The family who runs it are wonderful.
Most amazing was the food! Delicious!! We were cold and tired and dinner was tasty, healthy, hot…one of our most favorite dinners!

There was a bar which had been open as friends were sitting outside having refreshments, but the owner had gone when I arrived so I couldn’t get anything (around 9.30am).

The cafe mentioned in the other comments is here, but it looks empty and remained closed despite being on location when it says it was to be open. There’s almost nothing else in this town, so its mostly just a place to rest your feet for a few minutes before leaving and moving onto the next town.

My overnight at the Hotel Rural Casa de los Deseos was very nice. The hotel and cafe are very clean and there is a nice grassy area with lots of chairs and tables. My dinner was excellent with a delicious and hearty bowl of lentils with veggies and sausage followed by an excellent pork shank, fork-tender with a flavorful crispy exterior, with an delicious gravy. I felt very satisfied with my experience.

Stayed at the municipal albergue, which is contracted to a bar. Very nice friendly albergue and town. Asun, the woman who runs the place is a hoot! Clean and well kept. Had a great salad when we first got into town, and a great dinner that evening for 12 euros. The bar is the center of town, and lots of local people hang out there. Just general good vibes all around. I recommend this place highly.
