Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Well located hostel with all I needed to rest my weary body after a long Camino walk. Quiet dorms considering, as mainly pilgrims wanting decent sleep. Plenty of food options close by and you can step on the beach from front door. Advance request for bottom bunk was responded to.
