Camino de Sant…

Found it open in May 2018 and run by super nice volunteers. Unfortunately it was full by the time I arrived (18.30 hrs) and volunteers went out of his way to make sure we didn’t have to go somewhere else. Ended up sleeping on the floor on a pile of 6 blankets which actually wasn’t bad at all! It has a cute yard around which has a view of the bay. Wish I had arrived earlier so I would have had time to go swimming in the sea! There’s one restaurant/bar in town that serves a decent pilgrim meal. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Camino de Sant…

Super crowded with bunkbeds very close together. Humid. Not super clean. Hospitaleros didn’t seem too be enjoying their job, unfortunately.

Camino de Sant…

Very unpleasant experience! I wouldn’t normally write a review and I am not a fussy person but unfortunately this place really upset me. I do not mean to be mean, I just wanted to warn others so that you can avoid it if possible. There was an extremely long queue outside already at 1:30pm and once we had waited until it opened at 3pm some people who had been waiting that long were turned away. Although not their fault at all this just might encourage future pilgrims to not waste time and walk on the the hostel 6km further which I hear is much nicer! Furthermore the ‘40 beds’ were very cramped and many under tables or on the floor, it’s was all very noising and the owner was a little tooo friendly if you see what I mean?! A place to sleep if you get here early enough but maybe to be avoided if you can plan for it. I hope this helps x

Have a kitchenette with a microwave, no stove. A spin dryer is available to help ring out clothes before hang drying. There is a place for tents out back. Very nice hostelaros. Rooms stay dark at night and doors close quietly.

Two sisters run these cozy quarters. They are warm and friendly and very helpful. We stayed in May, no problems finding beds here at this time :)
There is also wifi!

Warm for sleeping, but otherwise lovely. Miguel the hospitalero was wonderful.
