For albergue I would rather choose something else, the donativo was closed so I went here. The room with beds is quite cold and dark, not a lot of space for things. There is one toilet and shower for man and one for women (in the room there is 6 bunk beds). They also offer dinner which I didn't have.
Expensive food and drinks. 2 coffees is 4€ and glass of juice is 3 €!! Too costly for pilgrimps. Just 15eur bed is not worthy of dirtiness you get. Do not recommend! Only nice is the young guy working there, who really tries hard with English and giving you some nice experience.
Absolute freezing nightmare. No heat in the winter. Huge attitude when requesting heat. Only place open for 10 miles.... trapped. Thankful I didn't pay them for their overpriced dinner.
I have to tell you guys on Camino. No English No wifi No power cord near bed Only 2 showers and toilet for 10 Showers bad Door closed on 20:00 Put your shoes outdoors and it is wets on early morning. You should think about helping people on Camino. Not only try to get money from their pockets.
Was cussed out in Spanish by the older woman behind the bar because I asked for butter with my bread. My advice: keep walking. Buen Camino!
