The owner is super nice lady . She can speak very well as well. The first impression of this place is "Smell" The hostel smell so good like the perfume that 5 star hotel always use. The bed (+Linen) is so comfy (After long walk from Camino de Santiago , this is heaven) and The place is so clean . I love the garden on the roof top. There are a lot of space for relaxing. In the bathroom have bathmaths for providing all the time. You can pick it one , use and put in the basket . Overall, this is the best place i stayed so far.

1. Sensor in bathroom is not work in some part . So, you might have to shower in the dark. 2. No kitchen (Only microwave)

On Sunday evening the whole place was empty, only me and an other pilgrim used the whole facility. It was really clean and comfy. Warm water, blanket and heating was also available. I really appreciated these after 2 weeks of freezing in the rain and wind. Socket is available at each bed. Airport bus is a short walk away. (and costs 1 euro) Cathedral is max 10 slow minutes away. Laundry 4 mins away, and washing is also available at the property.

The height of the down part in the bunk bed is small, cannot sit straight. Separate shower, toilet for men, women in the facility (1-1 from each). In general this good, and was good, that only 2 of us were using the space, but I can imagine it gets crowded and busy, if the place is full. I did not receive the entrance information, luckily the other pilgrim got the entrance code in a message, so I could also get in easily. Washing is a bit expensive.

Albergue Linares was a great find. I enjoyed the hostel's amazing location and appreciated it was not right in the centre of the old town, avoiding the noise and the crowds. Samantha's friendly and helpful demeanour was also a highlight of my stay, and the cleanliness of the facilities was a great plus too. I definitely had a positive experience staying here.

For a constructive criticism, I thought there was a lack of clear signage for the hostel, making it a bit tricky to find. Making the hostel more visible and welcoming can definitely improve guests' overall experience and help them feel more comfortable upon arrival. I would suggest that the hostel consider adding more visible signage outside the building and perhaps updating the entrance area to create a more inviting atmosphere.

Most accommodating and helpful hostess. Had booked two dorm beds one night and decided to stay another if there was a private room available. Wasn't one on their web page but hostess gave us one the next AM at 9 allowing transfer of our stuff long before check-in time. This AM asked via text if she could get us a taxi to the bus due to the pouring rain. She stayed on it until one arrived. She was the perfect host.

We stayed in the 8 person dorm and I had a top bunk that was worse climbing in and out than most. Narrow foot killer rungs and flimsie frame.

The Albergue was super well located with only a few minutes walking to the cathedral. Everything was super clean and modern. The staff was really nice and flexible with check-in times. When I was there, it was not too busy, and it was not a problem that there were only two bathrooms and two showers on the floor. The kitchen was small and not made for cooking, but it was efficient for having tea and some bread in the morning.

I did not particularly like the beds because they were made out of metall, and when the upper person moved, the whole bed would shake. Also, the room layout was bad because there was one bed in the middle, and as there were no curtains, the light would shine in from both sides. Curtains would be recommendable.

It's a small dorm accommodation below the guesthouse. There are 2 dorm rooms, for 6 and 8 guests respectively. There's a kitchen, but really just for light usage, i e.as cooking utensils are limited. Reception is above and closed from below in the evening. Beds are comfortable and there are extra blankets. Towels are provided.

It is pretty small, so there's not much space if fully booked.

It was a wonderful 3 days. Good reception. cleanliness. Availability of necessary things. The free Wi-Fi service is good. A kitchen suitable for cooking with utensils. Bathrooms and showers are clean with basic things provided. Not to forget, the guests are respectful and kind. I highly recommend booking here.

The place is a little tight, but it was fine for me. And some noise from people outside for a little while.

I had a great stay here! -I had to check in late and they were very helpful and accommodating. They also helped me find the bus stop for the bus to the airport, which was great. -The location was great, it was less than 10 minute walk to the Cathedral and lots of restaurants -The beds were comfortable and came with a blanket and a comforter and they provided a towel -Everything was extremely clean -Hairdryer in the bathroom -Charging ports and lights by each bed -Lockers with locks and keys

I honestly think the only thing I was missing was a curtain on the beds. Other than that, everything was great and I enjoyed my stay!

Clean and nice hostel for really good price just 500 metres from the Santiago Cathedral. Great facilities (washing machine, hair dryer!), really convenient and well equipped bathrooms, comfy kitchen, cozy bedrooms with closets, lockers, a lot of space for your clothes etc. Convenient check in/check out by the code sent to you in private message. Nice experience.

I didn't like that in the afternoon you cannot really contact the staff and book another bed. My friend from Camino was looking for the place to stay and when we called the hostel, they said that it's not possible to book any bed anymore. And then, when I came to the hostel booked before by booking, it turned out there is still many free beds.

Great shower pressure and heat. Excellent WiFi (300+ mbps in all areas). Kind staff. 3.50 toasted bacon and queso bocadillo in 2 minute walk. Masa pizza down the street. Great location.

Insanely loud snorer next to me, but not the albergue's fault.
