After a long(ish) (~10 km) stretch with no cafès or bars, this placed charged €5.10 for one can of coke and one can of Aquarius! That’s $9 CAD! I would say my mistake was not asking the cost til after I was served, but really, it was coming here at all. Hope other Pilgrims with limited funds are spared the same!

LOVED this place!! So clean and lovely with 2 great outdoor spaces and so quiet! Host was super friendly and the included breakfast is an adorable buffet with tons of choices, and he'll make you eggs. For sure worth the short off-Camino walk.

We couldn’t get a room at the Palacio de la Magdalena.
We had a triple room at El Parador just down the block for 90 Euros. The hotel has been remodeled our room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. The attached cafe/restaurant was also nice. We had the menu of the day for 25 Euros.
Had breakfast there to before hitting the Camino.
