The owner is super nice lady . She can speak very well as well. The first impression of this place is "Smell" The hostel smell so good like the perfume that 5 star hotel always use. The bed (+Linen) is so comfy (After long walk from Camino de Santiago , this is heaven) and The place is so clean . I love the garden on the roof top. There are a lot of space for relaxing. In the bathroom have bathmaths for providing all the time. You can pick it one , use and put in the basket . Overall, this is the best place i stayed so far.

    This was a really lovely break from hostels - we'd been walking the Camino for a week, was so lovely to have a room to ourselves in a great location. Wonderful value for money and the staff were so sweet, let us keep our bags in the hallway after checkout which was very convenient since our flight was in the evening. Would recommend!

    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.

    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).

    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.
