Spectacular place.
Pros:

This place is really spectacular. It was lovely to wander through and learn about the history of it. You feel like you are staying somewhere truly special. The location couldn’t be better. It was so uplifting to hear the buzz of the Pilgrims arriving just outside and to be so close to the Cathedral.

Cons:

The shampoo is a bit like washing your hair in washing up liquid….sorry!

Very nice place just don’t stay on the first floor.
Pros:

It was beautiful and the location awesome!! They were very accommodating and wonderful.

Cons:

The room was very musty and damp. It smelled of old damp moldy. They need to run a dehumidifier to get the dampness out. The beds were hard which is really awful when just got done walking 500 miles.

Descanso após El Camino
Pros:

Hotel histórico e no centro de Santiago de Compostela. Ao lado da Cathedral.

Empanadas do restaurante foram servidas frias e não eram saborosas como eu imaginava, já comi bem melhores.
