It was comfortable, but way far from the Camino. It smelled funky as I walked in but it seemed clean but dated.

“Good value for money”
I booked this place intentionally as it was cheap. It was exactly as expected and what I needed before started the Camino de Santiago. It’s quite far from the main town but the road up to join the Camino is really authentic, especially at sunrise. The staff were lovely too.

Both hosts are very kind and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean, a perfect stop for a quiet rest on the camino. Supermarket/laundromat/pharmacy all close by. Highly recommend! 😊

“Cheap, good, right on the camino”
It was a good price for a private room on the Camino. The owner was so nice to lend me his charger after I explained I had a problem charging my phone. Regarding the rooms: the bed was comfy, there was a tv in the room, nice shower. Perfect for a stop at the camino, especially if you are moving on the next day as this place is right on the Calle de Camino.

Room was fine, comfortable enough. Near the camino trail but not quite. Lots of cafés around and supermarket.

Walking the Camino, it was far from old town, so unable to hang out there. On the other hand, close to laundromat and market. When we started in am, it was easy to hook back up to trail, having a headstart for the day.

It was OK. A bit our of town but by walking along the main road close to the Pension, you meet up with the Camino again.

Easy communication with the host. In case of question you can call him or if needed within 10 min he can be available. Supermarkets a available close by. The bus station for long distance buses is close (appr. 1km), so after my long bus drive from Madrid it was just a easy walking distance even with my backpack.
