If you're not fluent in Spanish, it might be best to avoid this one. When you call the host speaking English, they will just hang up on you. Moreover, there's no elevator, meaning you'll need to trek up to the 3rd floor. The bed is rather small and not ideal for accommodating two people comfortably. Plus, the room lacks sufficient soundproofing, so you might hear noises from outside and neighboring rooms.
Very clean&tidy, such a luxurious property and well equipped (kitchen & dining room), memory foam bed 🛌 so comfy after long walk!!! close to the Main Street with choice of supermarkets, groceries stores, restaurants and bars. I highly recommended this property and the view from the kitchen is amazing 🤩 with huge balcony!!!
The room was clean. Cons: the house is located far from the center, so you'll have to add more miles to the trip, and they offer a washing machine, so you have to bring the detergent yourself. Initially, they told us we could hang our clothes on a sunny terrace, but after a while they came back asking whose clothes they were and that we couldn't leave them there. The solution they offered was that we have a laundromat in the village with a dryer. They also have only one clothesline for four rooms, and it's in poor condition. I would advise you not to bring dry clothes with you, so you won't get scared.
There's no elevator, and if you're traveling from Palas de Rei, you'll notice it later. But that's the least of it. It's an apartment with eight separate rooms, each with a shared bathroom, living room, and kitchen. There was a lot of noise, so we couldn't rest well. Similarly, there were two of us, and they didn't provide towel service for both of us. When we asked for it, they blamed the cleaning lady, claiming she was new, which we found in poor taste and a poor management team. In short, we wouldn't recommend it for our planned trip (walking the Camino de Santiago), but it would be good for a single group to rent the entire apartment and then go sightseeing by car from there.
One of the best places I've rested on my Camino. It's true it's not near the city center, but that makes it much quieter and more relaxing. Everything was spotless. And there's a washing machine you can use at no extra cost.
