“A great place to start your Camino, absolutely recommended.”
Absolutely gorgeous view, kind owners, very quiet and restful. I arrived on a hot, June day, but the bedroom was cool and I had a great night’s sleep. It’s a tough walk up to the property from town, but for those beginning their pilgrimage, the warmup is useful.

“Rustic room on the Camino”
Great location for my first day on the Camino -it was about 3Kms from SJDPP after a steep uphill climb. It made the long walk to Roncesvalles the next day more tolerable -although there is no eating facilities nearby.

There was nothing to like and I'm disappointed that booking.Com had photos on its website that looked nothing like the place.

“La Coquille Napoleon”
Owner was very helpful in telling us about our walk the following morning. And It was on the path of Camino de Santiago and we saved a little steep walk up the hill in the first morning.

“Good basic accommodation but outside kitchen.”
Dorm was comfortable with good washing facilities. The location on the hill above the town saved a kilometer from the hard first day of the Comeno.

Great service, clean and tidy Albergue, friendly staff easy check in, I was late checking and they were very patient with me. And gave great advice with what to expect ahead in my Camino. Beautiful view in the morning.
