Anfitriones tan amables que nos ofrecieron vino y otras golosinas mientras nos relajábamos en el área exterior. Buen ambiente de peregrino y ubicado cerca de supermercados y restaurantes. Se puso un poco cálido por la noche porque la habitación estaba un poco abarrotada, pero el ambiente lo compensó. ¡10/10!

Envié un correo electrónico con anticipación para preguntar si estarían abiertos el domingo 4 de enero y respondieron por correo electrónico diciendo que sí. Les devolví el correo informándoles que llegaría alrededor de las 21h - pero finalmente llegué alrededor de las 20h. Según Google Maps, no cierran hasta las 21:30. Los vecinos me vieron atrapado afuera y llamaron al administrador, pero aparentemente no había nadie en el edificio ese día. Fue una experiencia bastante frustrante. Sé que funciona con donaciones, pero se esperaría que un albergue para peregrinos estuviera un poco mejor gestionado, o si tienen baja capacidad, simplemente cerraran durante las vacaciones. Los vecinos tuvieron que ayudarme porque no hay forma de contactarlos más que por correo electrónico, y terminé teniendo que conseguir una habitación de hotel que estaba más allá de mi presupuesto.

Advertencia para viajeros de invierno: lleguen bien antes de la noche o reserven en otro lugar

Albergue situated in the centre of beautiful Barcelos. There is one room with bunk-beds upstairs. Downstairs you have restroom, showers, and kitchen. We actuallz didn’t expect much because it was for free, but it was very nice place, clean and with cozy atmosphere.

We could drop in, even before the check in. The lady showed us around and assigned our beds. Meaning, we could have a shower, wash our clothes and chill, even before the daughter came to register us.
Cool place, nice common area, has a kitchen, and the sleeping hall at least gave some sense of private space, although you will be kept awaken by all the snoring people.

It’s great that they accept reservations.. and provide some blankets
Otherwise.. there is only one shower place which you can share with another person 😬.. no shower cabins
And the garden is very small compared to the other albergues so far.
Barcelos is a lovely city

It is a donativo albergue. Showers are ok, hot water. Kithen is fine, but not really for big cooking. Small garden, so you can put your clothes out to dry. Paper sheets provided.
Lady is normally in the cafe next door, so tricky to get in, also if you leave for some shopping or dinner, not easy to get in, sometimes ringing the bell and another pilgrim is opening. Otherwise ok. Barcelos is a lovely city, i loved it more than Porto.

This is a lovely central Albergue. 20+ beds downstairs and upstairs. 3 mattresses in what I call "The Coffin", a low down space. Handy for those struggling to find a place to stay. Good toilets and hot showers. A place to hand wash and hang your clothes. A roomy kitchen area if you feel like cooking. 👍. Love this Albergue.

It’s a good location and nice courtyard. The shower was warm and they had blankets. There was WiFi too.

Definitely not open as of today 29th March 2024. Don't go there, looks like a building site.. Got lucky with Top'Otel, got a room at short notice.

It can get a bit crowded upstairs. We were lucky enough to stay in a smaller room downstairs. But it’s very clean, nice showers and bahrooms, with a spacious common area, kitchen, laundry, and a sunny patio where you can hang your clothes to dry. Very pleasant stay.
