Great place to stay. Patrick is a wonderful and welcoming host. I had booked for a few nights earlier and got sick. They moved my paid booking to a different night. Beautiful gardens. Washer and dryer for a fee. I also had the seafood paella. It was great. Well worth the stop

This is a wonderful hostel. Hostess is so friendly and welcoming. Room was large with only 4 sets if bunk beds. Bathroom was very adequate. Well worth the short walk "off " the shorter camino route to Najera.
Highly reccomend spemding the night here.

Stopped at this lovely albergue, the hosts were very friendly and the place was one of the best I’ve stayed in so far. Great kitchen to prepare food and bathrooms were generous in size and amenities. So glad I stayed here.

This is a very nice place to stay after a long Camino walk. It was clean and comfortable, with a lovely outdoor space to relax in. The host was friendly and helpful.

This albergue was one of the cleanest and well run I’ve come across. It has a beautiful spacious sitting area in the back, laundry facilities, and even a small shop onsite (no groceries nearby) with fresh fruit and veg, pasta, eggs, etc. And Ventosa is a sweet town. Great place to stop if Najera seems just too far!

Stayed here May 2023. Would stay here again because we enjoyed the outside space. The slapping solar consist of four bunk beds per room. Showers were nice with several stalls and separate men and women’s. The wash room is in a separate building being the seating area providing room for hand washing or washer and dryer use. The kitchen is small but has conveniences including a coffee machine with free coffee.

Loved this albergue. Good set up for bunk rooms, very nice hosts, good restaurant at trail. Loved the garden set up in back.

Enjoyed my stay, nice mostly quiet location. Separated dorm style rooms. There's an alcove by check-in that has vending machine and fridge with ingredients stocked for sale since there doesn't seem to be a dedicated market in this village. Beds are spaced out enough and common areas are very open and airy

Camino de Sant…

This was the albergue that made me realize I don’t like staying in albergues. The hospitalera was very friendly at check in, and the facilities are reasonably clean. But the rooms are cramped, the beds are creaky and uncomfortable, the showers are ridiculously small, and there is currently construction going on across the street which meant a generator was running well into the evening and early the next morning. And Ventosa itself is unlovely and dull and not worth the detour. Wish I had gone to Najera instead.

Nice place to stay. I always like the multi-level places. A nice dining room on the bottom level with relaxing music playing and candles burning. A sunny courtyard offers a nice place to hang out and relax. Showers were probably the smallest I've seen yet on the Camino and hot water was scarce. Read past comments about a bed bug problem, but if they had them in the past, they appear to have solved the problem now. Overall a good place to stay!
