Very nice albergue. People at the reception were friendly and there was also a guy offering massages for a reasonable price. Don't know if it any good but a lot of people got one. The albergue got everything you need in the kitchen and it's clean. They have a lot of beds all in just two large rooms, so make sure to bring some earplugs :D

Nice place and nice people. For 6 you have your bed. Nothing special compared to many other Albergue but they have around 60 beds - only bad point: each room has 30 beds.
The worst albergue so far, we slept in one stinky room with around 20 other pilgrims (during corona), the “kitchen” can barely be called a kitchen as it only provides three microwaves and a sink, washing your clothes is insanely expensive and we were shaken out of our beds at eight in the morning and were made to leave the albergue into the rain, whilst no bar or café was open yet. All our clothes and our shoes were still wet from the day before as we couldn’t leave them do dry because we had to put them into plastic bags. There are a lot of other Albergues and hostels in pontevedra for just a few euros more, skip this one if you can!
8, many beds, communal showers, clean. Basic, nothing special. Small show inside and machine with drinks.
There was what looked like a homeless guy sleeping on the couch in the common room. It wouldnt have been a problem but he was just hanging around there the whole day doing nothing. Then there was another guy sleeping on the couch outside even though it was freezing cold outside. It was strange cos the dorm was almost empty. They left the outside door open all night and a mouse came inside the dorm to go into my bag at 3am. The receptionist was also yakking the whole day to a local guy who may have been a builder there. It started again at 7am right in front of the dorm. Too bad cos the hostel itself is nice.
May it’s a little overcrowded but for 6 it’s nice place to stay. Near are some supermarkets, it has kitchen and little shop with pilgrims stuff. Also there is vending machine
Very nice environment for pilgrims! The lady in the reception greeted us with Chinese, which surprised us a lot. Maybe we can try to teach her some Taiwanese to surprise pilgrims from Taiwan much more, We see people enjoy the sunlight on the grassland, and everything there was so relaxing for pilgrims. Strongly recommend for pilgrims on the way to Santiago!
Bed bugs :-( Stayed there two years ago - no problems. Stayed there two days ago (September 13th, 2019) and we found 2 bed bugs in our stuff and have many bites. :-( Called the hospitaleros but they claim not to understand English or Spanish (very conveniently). Please make sure if you go there to spray your backpacks and clothes well after leaving!
