June 5: As always the welcome is warm, and the old building charming. Hospitalera Noe went above and beyond any requests. Took care of the washing & drying and clothes returned folded! Suggested good restaurants one wouldn’t otherwise find. Opposite the Cathedral and Gaudi’s palace.

I really liked staying here. Noa was so helpful and friendly and we had the most special meal at the wonderful restaurant two doors down.
The building is old and squeaky but it was a great experience. The location was fantastic

What a dive. Walked in after a long day and had a cold shower. Are you kidding. Complained and told to wait an hour. The last thing I will do is shower again. Clearly the system does not have the capacity to meet demand. Beds crammed in together such that only one person can fit between two beds. Dormitory on the second floor…..bathrooms on the first floor. Go figure. Everything about this place is old and tired.

Plenty of space , bathrooms and showers for all. Water pressure was great. Kitchen very useful. I want to come back in winter and read a book by the fire and eat chocolate!

The only think is soundproofing between floors, so people going to bed late or waking up very early might disturb the others. Nice dorms

It’s right on the Camino and so convenient to the city .
My bed in the loft should have hit the rubbish dump about 10 years ago! Super super soft so pick a bed under the roof side ! Terrible nights sleep and it was a hot night.

Nice courtyard and foot bathing area .
Tiny shower stalls and no where to put clean clothes etc. But that’s not unusual.

The location of this was great for the cathedral and Gaudi Palace. The kitchen was well set up, and the dorm room in the attic was well set up. The host only speaks Spanish, but it's ok.
