    It's a large albergue and it attracted some poorly behaved guests. They introduced 3 guests at 22:30 without supervision into a shared dorm ... turned on lights, talked and messed around and woke everyone up ... this should have been much better managed!

    The place had good facilities and good staff. Located on Camino path.

    It’s a half an hour, 40 minute walk downhill to get to the city centres so just be prepared for a big walk or you can take buses. Be mindful when you’re in the shower, the light kept turning off. It’s a motion sensor light. It doesn’t stay on for a long.

    It’s a very busy hostel with lots of rooms what I liked about the hotel was the staff they helped me change rooms because someone was snoring quite loudly. It is a kitchen but you have to fight to have a space in the kitchen it’s small and there’s not much facilities, considering how many people stay there with only two burners a microwave no proper knives just basic utensils

    Probably not the best place for solo travellers for off season as it’s pretty empty during this time.

    The hostel was pretty clean and its really near the city centre

    -The breakfast was quite simple, however I understand it, the price is correspond to it - Recommend to relocate the trash bins from the kitchen area, it can attract uninvited friends

    - The water was hot even in midnight - The price

    When we first checked in they didn’t give us an all female dorm like we had booked, but they went out of their way to fix it the next day and even gave us a better room which was great. I did see a cockroach in the bathroom which was gross.

    The location was amazing and the staff were really helpful and accommodating

    A dormitory is like a dormitory: tight space, latecomers who still have to make their bed in the semi-dark, zippering their luggage etc., keeping you awake. Then the snoring begins. I always marvel at the kind of money the owners make with places like this, a small room with 10 bunks at E. 20 a pop, go figure! I should get into it!

    A busy, happening place. Many walkers/pilgrims. Very well organized.

    Sockets are only inside each locker, not around each bed. Location was a bit far from the centre (although there was a metro station nearby and old centre was within a walking distance).

    Hostel was mostly clean, and the bed was comfortable, too. They allowed me to leave my bag after checkout. Breakfast was simple but enough and fair for the price.

    There were no plugs to connect the phone to charge. Bizarre and noisy environment, not ideal if you want to rest well. If on the other hand you are looking to party it can be fun.

    The staff was accommodating, the facilities in the kitchen were good.

    You can walk into the center in about 40 minutes downhill. But its too far, and up too much of a steep hill for walking back from the city center to be enjoyable. However its very easy to catch the metro back, they run until 11pm. There are also buses. Then its only 5-10minutes walk to the hostel.

    Good facilites. Kitchen had stove tops, fridge and kitchenware. No oven. Breakfast included is a nice bonus! Cereal, toast, tea, coffee and juice. Good bathrooms, comfy beds. Lights auto switch off at 11pm, which we appreciated, stops people coming in late and turning on lights in big dorms.

    An employee's unwillingness to provide simple information about breakfast just because it's not her day at work. She asked me to ask another employee. It was my first day with coffee and I wasn't even aware of the other employee. However, I knew that she works at the Hostel and had just had her coffee. Water in the bathroom took a long time to heat up. And the beds could have curtains on each, producing greater privacy and less hassle when turning on lights.

    I really liked the location, the breakfast, the lockers (using our own padlock) and the attention provided by the manager.

    I was freezing! I had to ask a second duvet and I was using both + a lot of clothes to be able to sleep… And I’m almost never freezing so I am dissapointed because of this.

    There were a lot of free stuffs (from the oil to the dry shampoo) and a huge place for relax, playing, reading etc. The staff was nice, the Hostel was very clean.

    Because of the location with the views and quietness, it could feel a bit out of it with no major restaurants nearby. I felt some of the clientele of the hostel could be slightly questionable (e.g. one woman wanted to use my laptop to apply for local housing), but I did not experience any actual issues and have experienced worse at another hostel in the city on a previous trip.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Felt clean. Very pretty views of the city. Nice neighborhood; felt safe. Location was quiet. Very close supermarket. I slept really well and often have problems sleeping in new places. Good sized lockers and sockets in lockers so you can charge valuables while locked away.
