This whole village where this albergue is located provides accommodations and nourishment to Pilgrims walking along the Camino de Santiago. This village is an excellent place to stop after making a steep assent to the top of the pass. This time you have an opportunity to stay a while and enjoy your accomplishment and the beautiful views of the immense landscape. I had a room in this facility that was just fine. A nice place to sleep and a good shower to refresh myself after the big climb. The lady proprietor is very kind and has a great sense of humor. Once you are checked in the service is self-help to let yourself in the door and you were on your own to depart the next morning. There is a daily mass at the nice chapel. And there are several nearby establishments where you can purchase refreshments and meals. There's also an extensive gift shop and pilgrim supply store in the village.
