The woman who checked us in was the most uncaring and inhospitable Hospitalera - completely inflexible and unwelcoming. No sympathy for people on the verge of hypothermia. She’s in the wrong job. Laundry service was amazing and food ok.You need a good breakfast to fortify you for the slippery and dangerous descent into Zubiri. Don’t believe the km signs. When it is wet and muddy the last section is scary.

The Dutch volunteers are excellent.
Check-in, however, can be disorganised chaos when it’s busy — with seven people managing the queue and only one person doing the actual check-in.
That said, once you’re checked in, everything is great. It’s very comfortable.

Note that blankets are no longer provided, but sleeping bags and blankets are available for purchase. If you look it up, you’ll see that more and more albergues are phasing out blanket provision.

Dinner and breakfast were good — typical pilgrim food and very social — but be aware that the dining location is quite a distance from the albergue.

We waited for an hour to check in and people after us had to wait 2 hours! very disorganised though the volunteer hospitaleros were v helpful. Otherwise fine - ask for 3rd floor if possible as no bunk beds so much more space.

Just don’t understand the appeal of this place after two negative experiences. Very controlling in a weird way. No warmth to how they operate. Maybe they should focus on a smaller experience for the guests? 14€ for bed, 7€ laundry, also offer takeaway snack for next day, and dinner at fixed times at local places which may leave you unable to attend pilgrim’s mass :/. Incredibly difficult to climb those bunk ladders with seemingly no consideration given to age of guest. Reasonably clean, beds are comfy.

I stayed there Sept 19th 2024. I knew there were going to be a lot of us but it was so well organised and so many helpers on hand that it was no problem at all and I really enjoyed staying here. I was glad I had pre booked as I got a bed in a cubicle beside just one person. A friend who hadn't made a reservation got a less comfortable top bunk in the overflow area. Dinner and breakfast was good, no complaints there. Enjoyed sitting at large tables and meeting other pilgrims.

This was an excellent Albergue. There seemed to be an army of volunteers to help you work out what was what which was great as this was my first stop. Check in was easy and the beds were comfortable and quite sturdy so the top bunk wasn’t disturbing the bottom bunk too much. There was also a locker for each bed which you could lock for a euro. They had those plastic mattresses which I like because you don’t have to worry about bed bugs. Separate shower rooms and bathrooms for men and women.

I loved staying in the old facility back in 2007 but this new facility is so much better.
It is well run and very comfortable.
Due to the massive numbers of pilgrims it is advisable to book in advance.
I think it is ridiculous to complain about the size of the place and to recommend people to stay in the hotel instead.
This attitude reflects many of the new "tourigrino" walkers who don't understand the true pilgrim ethos...mores the pity.

Unique and nice place to stay. Volunteers were abundant if not a bit over zealous. Well worth the walk from SJPD. They do take reservations and we did so via WhatsApp. Highly recommend reservations as they had to turn pilgrims away daily. Prepaid meal is mediocre at best, although convenient. Those that opted for meal at hotel were happier. Fun experience and very clean.

The 4 bed cubicles was good. Bathrooms great. Lockers and charging points well positioned. Be aware they lock you out right on 10. My partner had to race out at 9.53pm, as he left his phone at the bar and he was told back luck if he gets back and it’s locked. Wasn’t very Christian to say that. The pilgrim dinner was the best.

Huge and perfectly organised albergue.
