I booked a private room for one person, but they showed me a room with a Naegae bunker bed. The bathroom is also shared. Even though it's a private room, there's no window and they don't even provide towels. However, they charge a high fee of 30 euros and do not accept credit card payments.

Although I booked a room with private bathroom and breakfast at 25€, i had to pay 30€ and my bathroom was not private but across the corridor. Everyone seemed to be using the bathroom which was left in a dirty condition by someone. I only realized late that no towels had been left for me so after my shower?? Pillow was lumpy and needed to be replaced. Breakfast was non existent, I paid for my breakfast in the cafe opposite. I was very upset when I arrived that it was obvious that they weren't expecting me even though I had corresponded for a few months with them. I would like to give 0 stars but I couldn't.
We got in to town at night, and found this place right away. It's next the train station (handy). Everything is new at the time of writing (July 2015), and our room was beautiful: designer touches like artfully exposed brick wall, one wall with wood slats stained a nice green to offset the plush burgundy satin and velvet bedding, dark wood ceiling, very cool shower, etc. Great! They also have small dorm style rooms where you can pay for one bed, with shared bathroom down the hall - they cater to people doing the Caminho, and have stamps for pilgrim passports. One downside was the noise from the street, but that's out of their control. Also, we're city people and used to it.
A lovely, freindly place to stay. clean and cosy with good shower and area to make own food if needed.Super laundry service too. Central location. Good for train station.
We had a really good time there! Nice place and a really nice owner that really helped us in every situation with always the smile on her face! We stayed a little but we had a really good time.
