El Albergue de Gaia

Very good albergue. The couple who manage it is very attentive and always available. Very clean with all the necessary conditions for pilgrims. The only thing missing is a light and a personal socket in each bed. Mixed showers!

Wonderful albergue with really loving and caring hosts!

I stayed with Marisa and Carlos for the second time in 16 months, and loved it. Their albergue is perfect, is superbly clean and has everything a pilgrim needs. The sunny garden behind the house is secluded and beautiful, and your washing dries in the sun in no time. The bathrooms and facilities are modern, immaculately clean and spacious.

Marisa and Carlos welcome you personally to their home and know your name. They wish you good night before lights go off. They help you with anything you need - in my case, I suspected that I was providing transport in my sleeping bag to bed bugs from some precious place, and Marisa washed my sleeping bag and all clothes in the washing machine and then „roasted“ them in the dryer for almost an hour :-) Thank you very very much!

I highly recommend Albergue Gaia to any decent pilgrim on the Camino and hope to be back again some day!

Very clean and spacious bathrooms
Functional kitchen and it is kept neat and clean (thank you)

Plenty of usable space, both indoor and outdoor for hanging out (especially in summer)

Dorm rooms have 4 bunk beds (8beds total). Pretty well kept

Excellent place! They know what pilgrims need!

Not a huge albergue which i liked - Marisa and Carlos were such fantastic hosts. The rooms were comfortable and the kitchen was large and well-equipped with everything you need.
The backyard terrace is spacious and nice to relax in. Would definitely recommend staying here!

nice place for pilgrims, hosts are vey welcoming. Place is nice and clean, garden seating is very cozy. Breakfast for donativo, highly recommend.

The most fabulous Albergue. Carlos and Marisa were warm and welcoming and the Albergue has everything you need and more. Visit them, they're amazing ❤

really nice albergue. the owners are very geniune and take good care of pilgrims. it's very clean and everything is in good working order. €8 per night. open in winter. €2 to wash, €4 to dry or €5 for both. has a great kitchen. showers are a bit small but the water is hot. thoroughly recommended

Wash and dry was 6E and they do it for you, returned nicely folded. Gracious hosts, clean facilities and a simple but nice breakfast, donativo. Close to the main plaza and the DIA grocery store.

This is a brand-new albergue, only about 1 month old as of this post. It was recommended to me by a hotel and restaurant owner in the town, claiming it would be well worth the €8 (as the municipal albergue is only €5). He was right. The place was very clean, very comfortable, and modern yet charming and spiritual. They made us feel at home immediately, and theirs was the best donativo-breakfast yet the next morning. I don´t think this is common, but they even shared a delicious paella with me in the evening, and some wonderful family conversation.

I highly recommend this establishment. It is too new to be in most guides, but it was highly worth the detour.

I stayed at Albergue de Gaia in April '16. Beautiful, comfortable, excellent location, hot showers, comfy bunks, grassy area out back for lounging and the owners Carlos and Marisa are wonderful!! A group of about 8 of us made dinner in the beautiful kitchen.

Fantastic accommodation, new, modern and completely spotless. Host are extremely welcoming and felt like home from home. Plenty of space for washing, great breakfast and close to the centre of town for restaurants and the supermarket.

This albergue was extremely clean and very accommodating. The host was very kind and made sure all were happy. My husband's backpack never arrived and the host drove back to the last albergue and brought it to us. Stay here.

Awesome awesome awesome. Everything is clean, new, comfortable, you name it. Super nice hosts. They heard me talking about my headphones who got broken and gave me new ones! :0 Really nice sitting zone outside, with a garden.
Only disadvantage : a little too tiny

Amazing place to stay! Hospitality and the people are very nice and the whole place is very clean modern. I can only recommended. Thank you for everything

The albergue is basic but has everything you need. It is clean and a very nice place. The owners Marisa and Carlos are lovely and very hospitable. I had a nice time with other pilgrims. Thank you from Yoko.

Best Albergue I have ever visited during the camino. Even treated with special cake and surprise present on the Epiphany. Friendly hospitalero, clean beds, and superb shower booth and toilet. Highly recommended.

Really good experience
Yes, all the reviews specify cleanliness and good facilities! I would highlight the fact that owners are all the time real cloae if you need someting.
I had a very good sleep, very confortable!
Thank you for hospitality!

Small, cheap but very good albergue with very kind and hospitable hospitaleros. And... everything works, showers, toilets, washing machine, kitchen etc. The owners really make you feel welcome and at home.

Both staff members were very welcoming and helpful. The albergue is extremely clean. Great place to stay on the Camino. Great value for the price.

Amazing place would recommend to anybody to stay here owners are so welcoming and kind. They really go above and beyond . I left my jacket there called them and they drove to my next albergue in Leon to give it to me . Definitely the best place I’ve stayed in the Camino
