- MFer_28 (7/5): Noche tranquila y un ruidoso despertar. - Esa noche, tuve la suerte que sólo éramos dos chicas en la habitación y todo fue muy tranquilo. Al día siguiente hubo un grupo de personas que estaban haciendo el Camino de Santiago, muy temprano, sobre las 06h y pico de la mañana, estuvieron cantando y haciendo mucho ruido y no tuvieron consideración alguna con el resto de la gente que estábamos aún durmiendo.
- Magda (10/5): - Da tranquilidade do local.
Da limpeza. Da simpatia dos funcionários. Do conforto do alojamento. Para hostel está muito bom. Qualidade preço excelente! O pequeno almoço podia ser um pouco mais variado.

- Lana (7/5): - Overall, a good hostel for one night. Clean, centrally-located, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The beds really need some oiling. Super squeaky.

- Londono Gutiérrez (5/5): - Lo tomé porque lo mostraba en el mapa en frente de la estación y al llegar me tocó tomar un taxi y al día siguiente con lluvia fue caótico todo, es muy retirado de la estación nada cómodo.

- Gabriel (6/5): Mientras tanto..... - Sobre todo la ubicacion es lo mejor. Muy cerca de todo caminando. Se nota que es para "de paso". Está muy bien pero necesita un toque, unas pequeñas modificaciones para que se muy bueno. Si cambian el soporte de las camas hara menos ruido. Habia buena calefaccion pero si ponen mejores mantas estaría bien. Al igual que pueden poner un ambientador automatico para negocios que hay muchisimas fragancias, tipo centro comercial o tiendas. Pero la cercania de todo en lineas generales esta bien. Al igual que las duchas, ya las cortinas para las duchas no estan bien sobre todo por higiene si ponen puertas del mismo tipo de las paredes de la ducha esta muy bien. DETALLITOOOSS......pero serian los que marcan la diferencia de Bueno a Malo.
- Fran (10/5): Lovely overnight when cycling the Camino Sanabres with bike parking and close to the city centre. - Great hostel, secure bike storage during our stay was great. Would recommend and the staff were helpful and friendly.

- Gelvis Jose (10/5): Muy bien! - Limpieza, instalaciones, cercanía con el centro.
- Catherine (7/5): Overall had a nice short stay - Host was extremely kind and welcoming, which was much appreciated. After checking in he gave a tour of the facilities, explaining things as we went along, which was very nice. I also loved the signs posted around the facilities -- helpful to have reminders visible. Dorm room was absolutely massive! I was allowed to stay in the common area after I checked out which I also really appreciated.
Feminine hygiene products in the bathroom and free (simple) breakfast were really nice added touches!! Dorm rooms were not locked, so any guest could just walk in to your room. Beds were EXTREMELY squeaky -- really needed to be oiled!!! Would have been much appreciated if there were hooks in the shower stall, as there was no place to hang anything. Floor of toilet stalls were quite wet -- not sure if there was a leak.
Not the absolute nicest place, but great for the price!
- Anna (9/5): Bien, limpio, amplio, cómodo - Estuve muy bien en general, pero me gustaría destacar la actitud del propietario que hace que estés bien: no mezcla los géneros aunque podría (ambas habitaciones en teoría son mixtas, pero por lo menos en invierno las tiene por género), lo lleva solo con una pequeña ayuda de una chica, en invierno deja puesta la calefacción aunque solo tiene 4 gatos de huéspedes y no creo que le salga rentable, te ayuda con todo... etc. La ubicación está muy bien, las taquillas están muy cómodas porque justamente son cómodas y no estanterías altas. El salón comedor está bien también, es grande y hay una zona de comedor y una zona de sofás. El desayuno (ni lo probé): margarina en vez de mantequilla, bollería industrial, pan Bimbo o algo así, café solo soluble porque no hay ni cocinilla ni moka. Pero vamos, no tiene ni por qué ponértelo, en la mayoría de los sitios no hay ningún desayuno incluido, así que quien busca desayuno incluido seguro que valoraría lo que se le ofrece.
También las literas que hacen mucho ruido, la gente se despierta.

- cheryl (8/5): -
- Francisca (8/5): Goed. - Aan de rand van het oude centrum, vlakbij een van de hete bronnen.
Zeer grote gemeenschappelijke ruimte, maar niet erg gezellig met weinig mensen.
Schoon. Ontbijt is inbegrepen maar zeer basaal.
Geen privacy bij het bed (geen gordijn).

- Miguel (10/5): Clean, friendly and comfortable - This is the 5 start hostel of the Camino. Good space in shared room. Comfortable beds, 20 minutes walk downtown. Breakfast included. Bike friendly. I highly recommend this hostel.
- Igor (9/5): - Bien ubicado y el personal muy agradable. Desayuno correcto El hecho de compartir habitación siempre implica más ruidos
- Chia ming (7/5): - 還算乾淨 櫃檯在下午兩點到四點有休息時間
有點超出正常認知 在訂房前還真的沒注意到
- Rguez (10/5): Todo genial - La amabilidad y atención del hospitalero. El pedazo de desayuno tipo buffet. Y la confortabilidad y limpieza del albergue. La relación calidad precio sobresaliente. Me gustó todo. Es amplio el albergue y el personal me atendió muy bien e informó de cuestiones de interés para mí durante la estancia.
- Desirée Isabel (10/5): Recomendo a todos - A limpeza, calmo, e do respeito pelos peregrinos por o pequeno almoço cedo para eles. Cama faz um pouco de barulho é normal nunca tive em nenhum hostel que não fizesse.
- Jean-Paul (9/5): Si je suis resté trois jours, ce n'est peut-être pas un hasard. - Personnel accueillant et bienveillant. Larges espaces. Rien à reprocher. Ah si ! La clim' aurait été apprécié. Mais bon, c'est une installation coûteuse qui n'a pas toujours d'usage. A par ça, tout était bien. Merci.
- Begoña (6/5): - Las instalaciones Mucho calor en las habitaciones
- Jakhan (7/5): A basic hostel in Ourense close to the old town (ideal for 1-2 nights) - - Clean and not crowded
- Good location (very close to the Old Town and main sights; 30-35-min walk from the train and bus stations)
- Comfortable beds (bed sheets are provided)
- A spacious common dining and living area and a kitchen with all the basic necessities
- Very nice and clean common toilets and showers - It was a bit hot and stuffy in the room
- I wish the sockets were a bit closer to the bed
- Romina (10/5): Great - Location and free breakfast N/A
- Keith (9/5): Comfortable relaxing - Exceptional service Drunk backpackers who have no respect
- Anne (8/5): Short stay on the Camino road - Good breakfast Quite old beds, old matrasses
- Neves (8/5): Okay - I was happy
- Marie-claire (8/5): Very good - Clean and ample facilities and super kind staff. Very good to have lockable lockers and the place felt secure. The location is good because it's near the cathedral and some good tapas and bars but it's a fairly long way from the camino if that's what you're doing. Some guy came in during the night who was clearly super drunk and woke everyone up but that's not the hostels fault! The communal areas were good and the breakfast provided was buffet style, which was great. The provision of toiletries in the showers was really handy and they gave actual sheets- I just feel like 20€/night is a fair bit for a simple hostel. I would probably stay there again though.
- Hannah (6/5): Pleasant -
- Martinez (6/5): Pleasant -
- Karen (10/5): All good - clean, good location, nice common area
