Very nice, clean , secured place to stay. The staff ( Carlo the man ) makes you feel comfarable and welcome all time. About the location : I liked the location which it is a little distanced from the historic center of town , but there is a bus route going up and down and you still make it walking down to center . The place around restaurants, groceries and very nice modern mall . 👌

Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Personal is very friendly, will allways help you. The price/performace ratio is very good. The location is amazing, next to the cathedral, coffeeshops, restaurant, laundryshop and shops. Best hostel for pilgrims :) for private rooms you get a towel and shampoo/soap. Little kitchen to cook and hairdryer are present. Will stay there again.

    An ideal place to end a pilgrimage – a hostel within a grandiose seminary building. I stayed in a mixed dormitory and used a common (shared) bathroom. Rudimentary but cheap. Kind and helpful staff. Wonderful view of the old town. Located next to Belvis Park, about 1,2 km from Santiago de Compostela Cathedral (less than 20 minutes' walk).

    I found the Hostel location great (just outside the walls of the Old town), the immediate area felt safe, and there were lots of bars/cafes/shops nearby. The bus stop to/from the airport is just 2 minutes walk from the Hostel. The bedroom and the shared bathroom was clean (there was a daily cleaning service). José, the host, was very helpful with recommendations and history of the local area. Overall this family-run Hostel felt very homely, I enjoyed my stay here.

    Fab showers. Clean rooms, the private room had bedding, but no towel. Good WiFi, free. Great location, in a hilly city. Airport bus stop 10 min walk away, run from 7am every 25 minutes I think. €1 for the bus. So much to enjoy in Santiago. The hostel and city felt very safe and clean.

    A great place to stay. Very well-organised. The bunk beds are quite private with your own night light, charging station and curtains. One of the best youth hostels I’ve stayed in on the Camino.
