It’s in the details. Marcelo is a gentleman and a fantastic cook. As a pilgrim himself he did a Camino (the first of many he has done) and he wanted to make a life running an Alburgue.

There is a three bed room downstairs and bunk beds upstairs. The rooms and bunks are clean and very comfortable. The bunks big enough to sit up and not bash your head.

The bathrooms are clean and spacious too.

You can cook a meal or eat Marcello’s Italian style pilgrim dinner (highly recommended).

We laughed all night and shared tales of the long paths we have all been on.

Stay here it’s a treat and a real pilgrim experience.

Thank you Marcelo for a great stay. We will return. xox.

Regards,

Portland and Helen.

This is a wonderful, clean and welcoming albergue. The food is fabulous and the beds are divine.

What a gem! Marcello runs a warm and personal Albergue. It’s clean with 3 beds on the ground floor and several upstairs. Large bathrooms. He’s walked different routes of the Camino many times. He also serves a lovely communal meal at night with wine and dessert. Highly recommend this place.

We entered the town and wound our way to the trail leading out of town, and there was our little oasis! Marcelo greeted us and made a real wax stamp for our credentials ❤️ Upstairs: Bunk beds that are tall enough to sit on and long enough for tall pilgrims. Each bed had an outlet and light. Clean sheets and comforters too! But, let me tell you about the splendid dinner! Marcelo treats you like family and the Italian pasta with a huge fresh salad was so tasty. Wine and bread was abundant. Flan for dessert. Thank you for the wonderful time.

We chose the private room and pilgrim dinner. Both disappointed.

The private room had a private WC that was only accessible by walking through a cramped public area containing the reception, kitchen and dining area. Awkward. Both were a little shabby and other guests assumed the private WC was shared because of its location.

The meal had one option: a bowl of pasta (good, but average), a salad (good but average) and a small store bought flan. We’ve had many similar or better meals for less that, for example, included more options and homemade desserts.

The owner was friendly and accommodating and meeting other pilgrims was delightful, but in the future we’d choose another place to stay.

Wonderful stay, real sheets and towels, sat down with Marcello and other pilgrims to a home cooked Italian meal. Well done Marcello, excellent meal. Would highly recommend to stay here. Perfect location on Camino route.

An incredible communal Italian dinner that is a highlight of the Camino. A must stay.

Very Nice stay here.
Soft beds and also curtains for privacy. Everything is very clean. Nice clean sheets and even a towel!!
A hanging basket in front of the fireplace for your boots. So nice… in the morning warm dry boots to put on.
Marcello made a beautiful Italian dinner.
Very nice to share dinner with other pilgrims. That’s what’s the Camino is about.
Thank you so much Marcello and go on like this.
You are the best on the Camino.
Un cordial saludo Elisabeth

Stay for the communal dinner! Marcello is a great host! He cooks great pasta, it’s homemade! Honestly, one of the best meals that we’ve had on the Camino. We ended up with the VIP room! Clean room with real sheets & blankets. The place has charm & character. Loved his selection of music which included many genres. We would stay again. Highly recommend!
