    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.

    Paper thin walls or I don't know but you could hear every single door closing even with ear plugs.

    Friendly reception staff. Good price. Vending machines with pretty decent prices.

    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.

    The room was simple, but had everything I needed after finishing my Camino, even small sink. It was clean and so were the toilets. There was a machine with coffee and drinks on the floor, and a small supermarket in the basement. The location was just right away from the city center and just close enough. The view of the city center is really nice.

    This is the third time we stayed at Santiago Menos, it is a great Albergue for when you reach Santiago after a pilgrimage of more than 800km.. We love the building and views from there. It has good facilities for all the guests staying. The dorms are not bunk beds and are very comfortable. Good showers and great common areas, they have laundry, kitchen and a little cafe/store downstairs that is very handy. Will definitely stay there again!

    There was nowhere clean and dry to lay or hang a change of clothes in the showers. This made showering in this shared space extremely difficult.

    Neat way of ending the Camino by staying in an old rustic building like this. Very clean and tidy. I would recommend either eating prior to check in or having all your supplies with you as it can be a bit of a hilly hike back into town after what was potentially a very long walk to finish the Camino.

    I have no negatives on my many experiences over a number of years in this property especially at the price charged.

    Accessibility and it has all that I need , good kitchen facilities, space to sit , washing machines, and adequate and very clean bathroom facilities. And luggage storage.

    Hard to find complaints really, the electricity cut out a few times but then it’s an old building! The shop downstairs is pretty good but there’s no real breakfast menu (this isn’t a complaint just adding this for the info of other potential guests).

    Beautiful building and very clean, staff are super friendly and helpful. The showers in particular are excellent, they get really hot and good water pressure & not operated by buttons! Perfect for the end of a Camino.
