Pilgrims' comments
The best
Excellent. A brand new hostel, clean and well-equipped. The air conditioning is a true luxury during the hot months. Thank you very much to Ana for her kindness and the delicious pears.

Great Albergue!
Staff was so helpful and they did our laundry for free which was so appreciated! The place is clean and they have food you can buy to cook dinner or you can walk to Antonios restaurant.

Loved it
Arrived at around 15:30 and was 8th and last person to arrive. Lovely space, very new, modern and clean. They do have heating and good showers. They do your laundry for free. The ladies running it were incredibly nice, gave us a lots of tips and recommendations for the next day. Only disposable sheets, but you can rent a sleeping bag for 2€. They also sell some groceries for reasonable prices.

Clean and friendly
Agree with everything that has been said. AMA and Marianwere fabulous and couldn’t be kinder and friendlier the sitting area has tables and couches and is light and airy. The kitchen is minimal so don’t plan to cook there. There is a vending machine with can’t and soda. It is cold out and was rainy when we were there so we couldn’t use the pretty grounds but we’re grateful for hot showers and a free laundry! Recommend.

Best public albergue on the Caminho
Best public albergue we stayed in on our Caminho. Two rooms, on downstairs and one upstairs with about 12 beds each. Sparkling clean, FREE washer and dryer, outside space to hang out. Great restaurant „Restaurant Pedra Furada“ or simply „Antonio‘s“ nearby.

Good stay
Clean, new albergue in nice building. Bit far out of town (maybe 20min walking on my sore feet each way) so stock up on supermarket supplies before arriving. There’s accomodation better located to restaurants but Albergue is good if you’re not needing. Big lawn was really nice to relax in. Free washer and dryer, but malfunctioning a bit when I was there. Some mosquitos. Super handy lost and belongings shelf at reception,where you can pick up free supplies.

Very clean
Spotless and very clean albergue. Great kitchen. Do walk to the café to meet Antonio - he is brilliant. Be aware that downstairs room near the window will suffer with traffic noise through the night

Stayed here July 11, 2024
Very clean, beds felt brand new. The pressure in the showers was great but the drains were sluggish. Only 4 people the night I stayed. Looks like there is someone sometimes offering massage. Highly recommend. Very quiet and comfortable.

Really nice albergue
I had the whole albergue to myself begin of November. Really nice place, looks new. And after a rainy day I enjoyed the washing machine and dryer. Pelgrims leave some things behind they don’t need anymore. You might find something for yourself.

Washer and Dryer - Included
As mentioned, new clean donativo. 24 beds in 2 rooms. Allows camping in the large yard, but there are sprinklers that go off at 2 am. The other washer and dryer are free to use and have soap.

Nice, new and clean
Small but very nice hostel. I stayed there December 12th and was the only guest… It was recently renovated and that is great, the ‘kitchen’ area is very basic. There is a coffee machine (bring your own coffee) and a water cooker. No place to cook anything. The laundry area is great though, free use of the washing- and drying machine. 👍🏼👍🏼

Very nice
Very nice, clean and calm. Many empty beds, washing and drying of clothes for free. I recommend it.

One of the best until now
One of the best albergue until now. We were only in 4 and the place was amazing. Super clean, donativo, free washing machine and dryer, amazing showers, snack and coffee machine, Rachel is very friendly and helpful. There is a near restaurant where the food is really good (8 euro for a pilgrim menu)

Very Comfortable
For a DEPORTIVO (that 8 E is outdated), they have FREE washing machine with free detergent pods too. The place is sparkling clean. Disposable sheet and pillow cover protection (for use with your own) are also provided.

Newly renovated
Good stay at the newly renovated donativo with great shower pressure and washing machines. There was nearly no one there when I went. We were 4 people at a 24 ppl hostel
