San Froilan lived as a hermit in a nearby cave during the 9th century. At the behest of the people of León, King Alfonso III named him as Bishop, a position which he held for only 5 years.

I was the only guest. Why? The food was good and plentiful. The place is nice? The hosts friendly and welcoming.
A good place to rest before the ascent tomorrow.

I concur with the other reviewers that this is a wonderful place to stay. Congenial, wonderful food, great hosts- what more can I say. They treat you well and given that your €25 gets you a comfortable bed, a huge home cooked dinner and a decent breakfast to prepare you for the day’s climb why wouldn’t you stay here!

Luis is a wonderful host and Carlos is an amazing cook. Old home charm and fabulous meals. No frills, just the genuine experience one hopes for on their Camino.

Café Omega is a wonderful stop. Beautifully prepared vegetarian soup. The owner and his friend have come from Hungary, purchasing the bar from retired locals. Everything about the place is lovely. They hope to expand into a small albergue as well
