A 'true' albergue

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!
