This albergue is located in the old city house and you need to take few floors up to the entrance. I arrived very early, even before 1 p.m. and i need to ring that someone arrived. Price is quite similar to all other albegues, but the dormitory room with about 5 bunk beds has 2 bathrooms and is all renovated/new with nice view to the street below and Logrono cathedral. And you get your own key of the dormitory, so you can leave it and lock whenever you want. At this albergue you will get also a towel and if you wish to wash you clothes in washing machine and drier you just gave all clothes to them and they will do it for you. It is very nice, when you take after a day of walking on the Camino a afternoon sleep and when you wake up a fresh clothes are waiting for you. My overall experience was very positive in terms of comfort and location, but i must admit that in our dormitory slept only 3 pilgrims and i assume that there were even not any more pilgrims in the albergue on that day at all. So i do not know how it looks like when it is more crowded.

· Comfortable bed. Clean towels. Location was central and quiet, but I arrived late having spent three hours in the police station after all my baggage was stolen so everywhere was closed. A girl who worked at the hostel dropped the keys out to the police station for me which was very good of her. · The staff the next morning weren't particularly helpful. Despite waking up with no clothes and no food because my backpack had been stolen with everything in it, I wasn't even offered a glass of water. I had had nothing to eat since the previous morning when leaving Dublin airport, but two women who worked there sat and ate breakfast in front of me while I was upset on the phone to the Irish Consulate. I haven't reflected this in my overall view of this Pension/Albergue as the place was fine otherwise. But, if someone arrived at my house having had all their stuff stolen, I'd have been a lot more sympathetic towards them.

“Centrally Located”

We booked ahead as we did the Camino. Right in the heart of the bar/restaurant area and close to the Cathedral.Room. It was comfortable with all the required facilities. Big negative was the walls were paper thin and we could hear conversations in adjoining rooms. In addition there were loud phone … Mehr

We booked ahead as we did the Camino. Right in the heart of the bar/restaurant area and close to the Cathedral.Room. It was comfortable with all the required facilities. Big negative was the walls were paper thin and we could hear conversations in adjoining rooms. In addition there were loud phone calls at night with no supervision to call stop.
