I was about to check in when I was told that someone had found bed bugs the night before. I found somewhere else to stay to avoid the bugs!

Only after arrival I checked the comments. And next the mattress and room for bed bugs. I could not find any signs of them but then also did not really know what to look for. I also asked the owner and he said they had taken care of the bugs. At night the creatures were crawling all over the place. So unfortunately they are still there..

Very friendly hospitalero. Wholesome communal meal which started with a prayer led by the 84 year old owner. Breakfast from 6.30, fresh buttered toast served by the owner.

After a hot hard day of walking, it was a relief to find an open albergue right upon entering town, but it’s not worth it.

Took a nap and woke up with lots of bites, looked at bed and saw a bed bug. My 2 friends and I packed up immediately, and they tried to blame us saying we probably brought them in, and then suggested we stay in a different room.

Needless to say, we fled and are drying and drying and drying everything!!

The garden is lovely, and the guy who welcomed us was nice although he didn't speak a word of English. But when I woke up I saw 3 live bedbugs in my bed, when I took the cover off I saw a bloodstain on the mattress, everything was super filthy, I don't think they've cleaned the place in years. Wouldn't sleep there again even if they pay me. Avoid

The staff was so generous and full of love.
The evening was filled with singing, laughing, guitar playing and drums.
Everyone ate together and got to know each other.

A long established al argue which exemplifies all that is best about the Camino. The evening meal was wholesome and generous.

Art objects decorate every wall and service. The staff are kind and have a great generosity of spirit.

This place does have bedbugs and I don't think they will be gone anytime soon. It's really a shame because it's one really great albergue. The owners totally know about it because they make you store backpacks in a different room.

Lots of bed bugs.

I am sorry to write this, but I went there today and found a big and living bedbug on the first bed I checked. The host offered to sleep in another room, I refused and got my money back without any problems. The place looks very great and special and it is sad that it still struggles with bedbugs.
