We had a great stay at this Albergue. Nice room and very quiet environment. The cows walk through the street in front of the Albergue.

A very modern nice albergue - registration is by scanning a QR code that brings up a web site. A nice menu; no communal dining but very welcoming atmosphere with both inside and outside tables. One of the fun things about this albergue is watching the cows being brought in by evening right in front of the albergue with authentic working shepherd dogs. The albergue has a laundry service that will do your washing and drying for 8 Euros total. Our room also could be locked with a key we received at registration so our belongings were secure. Hand washing and line drying is available in the large backyard. A great experience to stay here after the hard climb up the mountain. And unbelievable mountain scenery.

Got there at 16:15 or so, asked if they had beds. They didn't know, I had to wait for the owner to finish a call, which took about 5 minutes. No spaces. Bought a drink and an ice cream, 4.50€. I had 4.40€ cash, so they'd rather break 50€ rather than simply giving up 0.10€. Cheers

Just stayed there 3 nights ago and really enjoyed it. The
final push up the bill was done when I was fresh and could enjoy the view.
Good food, nice folk, comfy bed.

Have just climbed most of the hill today. Welcome restful stop for the night before continuing over the hill tomorrow. Food is excellent. Really enjoyed the soup. Spotless clean. Owners are installing new washing machines but I was able to use the tubs outside and hang to dry on this warm august day.
Owners really attention to what pilgrims need is so nice after a not so nice experience last night!
Definitely recommend to those who feel like a full
Climb might be too much and want to break the walk into two days or for those like me who found they couldn’t get a booking on OCebererio this is a great place!

The lentil soup is really amazing as long as you aren’t a vegetarian. Kitchen is open till 8 pm. Generous with wine if you order the menu. Water in shower takes FOREVER to get hot if you are first to arrive. Recommend being early in summer though. People working here are Not in a hurry to check you in even by Spanish standards but is good if you are patient.
