— TripAdvisor praise
Mesón Albergue Tio Pepe is a sunny, sociable, and well-equipped stop with friendly hosts, solid pilgrim meals, and laundry amenities—strongly recommended for dorm stays. Private rooms and bar prices can feel steep, and walls may be thin. Ideal for a convivial rest, but budget-minded pilgrims may find better value nearby. 😊
