Les hospitaliers parlent anglais, bien, et sont parmi les plus gentils sur le camino. La rivière se trouve juste en face, et c'est le meilleur endroit pour se tremper les pieds.

Toutes les couchettes inférieures !

NOTE : Si vous séjournez ici, et si vous voulez faire le détour par Pradela en quittant Villafranca, assurez-vous de revenir vers Villafranca un peu plus loin et de prendre le sentier qui tourne brusquement à gauche.

Les hospitaliers parlent bien anglais, et sont parmi les plus gentils du camino.

I had the opportunity to stay here last night and what a wonderful experience. No bunk beds. The top floor is one big room with single beds. You have your own outlet, a nightstand and you get real sheets and a pillowcase. My bed was luckily on the water side of the room so all I could hear was the stream babbling out my window all night. After you hand wash your clothing, Natalie, one of the hosts, spun dried my laundry for free to allow for better hang drying. The kitchen had everything you needed and the albergue is located near a restaurant and supermarket. For 4€ they will provide you with a little to-go breakfast bag the night before which includes a yogurt drink, a sandwich, lemon cake and a banana. I would definitely stay here again.

The hosts are so kind here! Very clean albergue with great facilities. I lucked out with a private room that had a balcony facing the river and it was so beautiful. Fully functional kitchen. I don’t know why, but I felt so taken care of by the breakfast to-go back that the hosts prepare and deliver personally. A really lovely and recommended place!

The owner/host messaged me shortly after my arrival to make sure everything was going well.

We discussed the history of the town and I thoroughly appreciated his kindness during my stay.

See the other reviews, all are spot on, perfect!

So hospitable. Clean. Great shower best ever and the cafe just down the street best breakfast on the trail.

Je ne peux imaginer une meilleure auberge.
L’hôte m’’a offert une tasse de thé ou de café â mon arrivée. D’ailleurs, on peut se prendre une tasse en tout temps.
Dans ma chambre, il n’y avait que cinq lits simples (pas superposés!) avec de vrais draps. Ce petit dortoir était séparé en deux par un mur. On avait une salle de bain propre, moderne juste pour nous cinq. Celle-ci comprenait tout le nécessaire: du savon et du papier près du lavabo et des crochets à côté de la douche. Et quelle douche mémorable! Il y avait quatre jets chaude.
Sachez que l’auberge est située à la sortie de ce grand village, et qu’il y a un restaurant, une épicerie et un guichet bancaire au proche.

I arrived here just ahead of the rain, thankfully. The hosts are so kind and thoughtful. My bag was carried up to the dorm room that was airy, spacious, clean and had single beds!!! Also sheets and a blanket! Large windows.

A to go bag breakfast is offered. A good option as there is no place to eat for many kms.

I highly recommend a stay here.

The house of this albergue is amazing, as the interior is combined with the rock where the house is build on.
The owners are really kind and welcoming and the rooms are quite nice and spacious.

Would definitely recommend!

Bonus tip: if you feel like a small challenge the next day, please take the alternative route over the mountain! It is really beautiful hike and the views are just dazzling. In my opinion the best and most beautiful part of the Camino!
(You’re really on your own there so be aware of that, as there aren’t as much pilgrims there, although I could easily walk there)

I saw the ads for this Albergue upon entering villafranca and wasn’t able to locate it till my second day as it’s past the plaza and across the bridge, which is less than a 5 minute walk from the plaza etc. This place is a true gem along the Camino and is everything the reviews state and more, it’s exceptional value and was very welcoming, the hosts (owners) are charming and the entire building was clean, well presented with good services and amenities - make this place your stop in villafranca (it’s also on the route - bonus) you won’t be disappointed
