Hostel without any frills. No tv no towels no WiFi. Very safe though and breakfast buffet was very good. Bus stop on main road very close to hostel. Good price if you don’t mind roughing it.
This property is on the way into Santiago on the Camino and it’s very nice to be able to drop your backpack off before you finish your Camino at the cathedral
We stayed 5 nights. It's a budget hostel with minimal service. No change of sheets or replacement of bath towels. The actual site of the hostel is large with great space to chill or walk around. We did enjoy the cafeteria, the lady during the evening shift was extremely kind and accommodating, she had gone above and beyond her duties, thank you. Overall, we enjoyed Santiago.

I found it too big for me. Too far to go, although the bus was easy to access the next morning and didn’t take long to get to the city. And I was in a room with 1 man initially, which was daunting enough and then 6 more turned up at 1.30 am in the morning. Nice enough staff, would probably have been a better experience if I wasn’t on my own.
The room was clean and modern. The bed was comfortable. Hot shower. Helpful staff. The restaurant didn't start serving dinner until 8 pm. It was cafeteria style with very few options, but it was more convenient than going somewhere else because there isn't much nearby. The pharmacy vending machine was empty, but there were a couple others with snacks. The hostel is along the Camino Frances only 4 kilometers from the Santiago cathedral.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness
This is an 'albergue', not to be confused with a hotel. They provide a good night rest so you can continue with your trip (or pilgrimage). The only problem I had was that the floor was dirty.
It was better than expected. This is the first time I stay at this type of accommodations, the room was nice and clean with its own bathroom. The continental breakfast was good too for extra 7€. The bed was bit hard for me, but my sister loves it.
My first room 021 had a serious mold problem in the bathroom. As soon as I opened the bathroom door, I was hit with the smell. My room was changed. The second room 029 also had mold in the shower and mold coming from the wall, on the other side of the bathroom. I paid $70.00 for this room. This is unacceptable for Expedia, to list this property, at this price point, given the health risks from mold.

This room was a great and cheap stop over after a late flight . The room was very clean and bed sheets very clean.
Only downside was the toilet room smelt very damp and couldn’t sleep with window open
Other than this a great room for a family
Hostal en Monte do Gozo a 3.8 km del centro de Santiago de Compostela. Ideal para peregrinos sin grandes pretensiones y a muy buen precio. Desayuno incluido por costo adicional. Con lluvia es difícil el acceso, pero puedes solicitar taxi si tienes dinero para gastar o tomar un autobús hasta el centro por 1.5 EUR en el momento actual de esta reseña.
