    A giant albergue room, in which all the sockets are from the one end near the door. No way to charge your phone comfortably.

    The kitchen facilities are great, the view is amazing.

    Toilet/showers quite far away from the bed room. Noisy, not well sound-isolated. Very early check-out.

    Nice atmosphere in a historic building. Quite well location. Facilities to prepare own meals.

    Huge Communal Landing Place for Pilgrims
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Standard Single Room with Shared Bathroom
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Why do people have such difficulty realizing that they can close doors quietly with a bit of effort??? Other guests (pilgrims) can be really loud and inconsiderate...at the end of their Camino... so strange! Do they not notice themselves that the halls carry and amplify sound?? I do wish the management would place signs reminding people to try to be quiet in the dorms and maybe put rubber stoppers on the doors in the communal dining area so they don't SLAM! It is really stressful to hear this over and over again! Almost everyone I spoke to remarked on this. It is already a loud space with many people talking, but that's ok... it's the DOORS that are really a nightmare!

    Huge albergue, accommodating hundreds, but so spacious you can feel like no one else is there at times. Great kitchen for preparing your own meals with a small "supermarket" that is very thoughtfully stocked (although the juice machine could be labeled to say that the juice contains added sugar!) The location outside the centre is relaxing, with lots of park area and local community nearby. I enjoyed getting acquainted with that part of Santiago.

    It’s very large and sometimes you walk a bit to the bathrooms. It’s not far from the city centre but up a hill and through a dark park which may be an issue for some.

    I booked a private room which was great. It still has shared facilities but you have your own washbasin. It’s worth the extra euro. Shared showers were hot and water was plentiful. Historical building is interesting. Hostel used to be a seminary.

    It was very very large and sometimes it was a long walk to the toilets. Also they could have been better signed as a number of people went into the wrong toilet or shower room as a genuine mistake! The location is not too far but is up a hill and through a dark park which may be an issue for some.

    Amazing historical place slightly out of city. Hostel dormitory without bunk beds. No curtains or private cubicles. Beds were typical and firm but everything was clean. Unless you are really broke pay the extra few euro for the private room.

    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

    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.
