Pola de Gordon has basic services — groceries, a couple of pensiones, and bars. Meson de Miguel has rooms above the restaurant and serves adequate meals. Pension 15 de Mayo is similar — cheap, decent, perfectly adequate pilgrim accommodation. Neither is special but both do the job.

If you stayed in Buiza, note that Pola de Gordon is 7.5 km south — you'd have to backtrack north to continue the Olvidado.

One taxi in Pola de Gordon: Alvarez Suarez, tel. +34 987 586 058.

Camino de Sant… (not verified)

HOW HAD I NOT KNOWN ABOUT THIS PLACE?
5 minutes maxi outside the road for Camino. Nu is the administrator and super helpful. They have 2 super clean and lovely caravans and are happy to support pilgrims.

Normally tourists stay in huts which are €77 with bathroom and kitchen , living room and bedroom. (Normally 4 to 6 people).. like a family. The other options are a caravan for 3 or maybe 4 people which is super nice for €40 or a smaller caravan for 2 is €35. (2022). Super welcoming place and I would highly recommend it. 'Nu' speaks English and is a super classy and welcoming woman.

My phone charger had a major mishap in Hotel Nisi (In 2019 the charger blew up as well.. I just assumed it was a one-off). 'Nu' kindly charged everything up at reception. The reception is open 9am to 14hpm and 15hr to 20hours. Did I mention they have a PISCINA or swimming pool (20metres) that is open 13h to 15h and 17h to 20h. This is a super clean and tranquil place. You can go to a restaurant (15th May) for Pizza. Perfect showers. I will post photos to the Camino forum.
