Very typical albergue setup, so nothing glam around but it was clean, kind staff (Ismael was so lovely and helpful), great common area, a kitchen and great location. Also everyone staying the night I stayed was super cool (not sure if that should be scored, but this place seems to attract cool people).

Very busy place. There were 20 beds instead of 12 and it made it very cramped. Also not enough showers or toilets and no locks on them or privacy. Mixed facilities with see through screens? Good kitchen and helpful staff and great location. Just too busy.
Ok looking and clean room. However, the front desk lady was the rudest person I have met on the Camino. She made sure we knew we were interrupting her time when we checked in. Then, when we came back in the evening, the door key to the outside door did not work and she was too busy to help us while we were outside freezing. It turns out that she knew about the key all the time, but she seems to enjoy giving guests some hard time. Finally, we paid for using the dryer and when the clothes were not dry, she saw no reason to help us. Simply the worst service possible.
They save our live! We didn't found any albergue! They have a good price and the accommodation in acceptable !
The shower room was too small for a lot of people. Neat albergue.
