Casa David Triacastela - Hostal 2 Estrellas

Pro: Small but well appointed room. Good heating. Nice bar to have a beer. Con: Terrible smell emanating from bidet that did not have a plug. Bathroom light on a sensor that goes out when you are in the shower or on the toilet. Thin walls so talking and TV noise from adjoining kept us awake till late.

Great quiet place to recharge on the camino. Rooms are basic but clean and well set-up. The owner is friendly and helped me with some questions. Nice patio to chill and do/dry your laundry. Would recommend for a nice budget private room if you need a short break from albergue life.

They do try to make you welcome and are very helpful, but none of the staff speaks a language other than Spanish. Nice bar. Rooms a little cramped due to configuration. Bathroom ok.

The manager (owner?) was a nice man who spoke just enough English to get his message across. The room was nice and looked great. The bathroom was very good, recently redone. Overall, though, the room was small, very tight. It seemed like the bathroom of the next room protruded into our room. We could here that resident take a shower. Still, I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

The woman who checked us in seemed to not know how to smile. Even though the website says free laundry, when I went to use it, the same woman told me she would do it. Okay. Then charged me 10 euros once it was done My husband had a cup of tea this am. He asked for “uno mas caliente auga , por favor” (another cup of hot water, please)- same teabag as earlier. She filled the mug halfway and charged him 1.5 euros. Bathtub was full of hair when we got there and it was just gross. Thank god it was only one night. Edit Your website specifically says free laundry and clothesline. And the bathtub drain was clogged with hair when I went to shower the one and only time. It’s okay. We won’t be back. It was not a good experience.
