Stayed here for 3 nights with my son after walking Camino Portuguese Litoral Senda last May. The location is great, nearby train and bus station. The room is spacious, clean, comfortable and safe. The staff are friendly and helpful. Highly recommended and value for money. Already booked to stay here again in April and May 2026 when I will be doing a back-to-back Camino from Ferrol and Ourense to Santiago de Compostela.
We did expect AC, but the AC self contained unit was already programmed for winter & only warm or hot air would flow out. Luckily the window did open & it did help things during the evening & overnight hours. Staff was excellent. We did find the shower glass in closure strange & a shower curtain might work best. Overall a good stay & grocery store across the street was very helpful!
Decent hotel. Comfy beds, clean enough though walls are very thin. Water from the shower pools under the sink on the floor. Also, 1)Bathroom door knob didn't work properly. My friend got locked in twice, once when the door was locked, once when it was not. We informed reception who told us not to close the door 2)I left my pyjamas in my bed. At night I couldn't find them. They were right under the bed. I had to crawl underneath to get them. Informed reception who didn't seem to care. Didn't apologise. Zero service recovery.
Think very carefully before you stay here! The room was clean and tidy, but the venue is affected by noise late into each night (perhaps a nearby disco), I had to wear earplugs to get any peace to fall asleep. We were told that bikes could be securely stored in the room. Considering that during my stay my bike is EVERYTHING, then being told to store it in the ‘secure’ garage was unwelcome. The garage may be described as semi secure, think anyone could falsely gain entry pretty easily. And the area for bike is woefully inadequate. Tiny hooks from the wall and tiny cable locks for security, the locks could easily be unbolted from the wall.
Enjoyed staying here, great Reception service, very helpful, coffees made from the reception staff were great...everything was good staying there
