    It is a huge building and the ladies bathroom was a long way from my room. I found the common areas quite chilly. The store downstairs could have more variety, some fresh fruit would be nice.

    The room was basic but comfortable. I had a great view from multiple windows. There was lots of shelving and, although the bathroom was shared, there was a sink in my room. The staff was friendly and cheerful. The bathrooms were spacious and clean. The facilities were very good. Lots of beautiful spaces outside in which to relax, there is a park across the street.

    The matress was uncomfortable and the wifi signal was bad in our room. (Our room was at the end of the residence) The location is about 1.2km from the Compostella and a lot of stairs.

    The building is beautiful and the view from our room. As a pilgrim who just finished the camino a single room was amazing and for some privacy. They have good laundry facilities and a big kitchen with everything you need to cook a meal. The bus stop to the airport is a 10min walk.

    The kitchen area was somewhat of a quagmire, and I was not real comfortable with the loan washcloth being used to clean all the plates and cutlery. Not very sanitary.

    Very nostalgic and lots of history in those walls

    A quiet affordable single room, great kitchen, communal and laundry facilities

    Shout-off showers' light-timer was definitely too short. A bit off a historical downtown.

    It's a pilgrims' hostel, mostly dormitory rooms, but spacious and clean. No bunk beds. Modern bathroom and showers facilities. Nice view.

    We were bitten by insects there, which we hope were not bedbugs!

    Our double room was clean and had an en suite bathroom, which was a lot nicer than the communal showers in the building. Good cafeteria as well, and the staff were helpful.

    Huge place and it can take a while to reach your room. You should definitely know that you can only enter the hostel until 12:30 am. The bed was not very comfortable.

    Nice and helpful staff at the reception. Clean toilets and showers.

    We has single rooms. While the rooms were perfectly comfortable it was noisy - as most old buildings are- Some of my friends found sleeping difficult with osverhead noise. Not for you if you need quiet to sleep. Me , I have a hearing deficit so I heard nothing🙃🙃 and loved the place 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Ambiance was great and sense of history

    With too many pilgrims (maybe hundreds) the toilets tend to become dirtier faster than in other places. It would be good to have them cleaned maybe twice a day.

    Simple and clean room and nice facilities (kitchen, laundry, market). I stayed in a private room and it was confortable enough for resting one night, after a long camino journey. The price difference from the bunk beds is just 4€, it's worth it in my opinion.

    1. Install something on the room doors so it doesn’t slam when people open or close it making a huge noise. Or put a sign on each door to remind people to open and close gently and quietly. 2. Install hooks in the shower room so people can place their clothes and towel. Otherwise we had a great experience.

    1. I love the view of city from our window. Seeing the cathedral and sunset over the city was amazing. 2. Staff was so helpful and friendly. 3. Facilities were great to use. 4. Location is awesome. It’s part of the city but not exactly in the city. 5. Walking to and from the albergue was a soothing routine.

    There is shared fridge in the kitchen where is possible to keep personal food, unfortunately in the morning we discovered some of our food was gone (tagged with name and room number). So it is better to keep the food in the room.

    Good location, clean. Shared bathrooms were ok. Very kind and supportive staff. Big dinning room and self service kitchen pretty well equipped. There is even shop inside, opened only in particular hours, but still a pleasant supprise.
