    Great hostel in Villafranca del Bierzo! The host is extremely friendly and helpful! It's clear that this is a very new and modern hostel. Everything was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and there was a washer and dryer to do laundry. Breakfast was great before heading out in the morning! Great location in the town, easily walkable to everything! Highly recommend staying here!

    .Sonia, the owner, is magnificent! Her spirit of care, and giving and attentiveness is present in every detail in the albergue. The fabric sheets, the amazing garden and sofas in it, the cleanliness, the written signs - everything says care, love and attentiveness. It's probably the best hostel I stayed in during my Camino, and not necessarily because it was the fanciest, but it was the one that made my heart the happiest. Thank you Sonia!

    By far the best hostel/albergue experience I have ever had. Juan is such a kind host and went out of his way to make sure all the guests were beyond comfortable. The food was fantastic and he accommodated my tricky vegan requests. It's such a beautiful and well maintained facility, you're missing out if you don't stay here!

    It's probably the best hostel I've stayed in on the Camino. It was like a resort hotel. 10 single beds (not bunks) in the room with clean cotton sheets, plenty of space, a nice modern bar, and a garden terrace. Dinner cooked by hosptalero's mother was well above average for a pilgrim meal, as was the wine, which was local. Couldn't recommend it more highly.

    Stunning hostel situated on the Camino de Santiago. The hostel is new and immaculate, it has a terrace facing the garden which is a lovely place to sit back and enjoy a glass of the wine that comes from the owners vineyard. The host was so welcoming and kind, and the food prepared by his mother was delicious. Bathrooms were clean and the dormitory had single beds with bedside tables, lamps, plenty of power outlets. The design is very modern and really smart. A beautiful hostel.
