Hosteria Calixtino

Pleasant
Traveller Type:
  : The patio area was very nice plus there were clothes lines for drying clothes- Camino laundry. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The dinner menu was okay and we enjoyed our dinner.
  : We had a triple room which was okay but small and hot. (The weather was hot). Our preference would have been to sleep with the windows open but there were no screens and the flies were terrible. We slept uncomfortably with the windows closed. The Hostetia is in the middle of a field in cow country so screens are not an unreasonable requirement. Breakfast was inadequate for 10euros per person. The smallest glass of orange juice we have had in a month, coffee from a big urn was almost undrinkable and breakfast was toast with a small plate of ham and small chunks of cheese. Our table of three was served the same size plate as tables of one and two. We had also ordered an offered picnic and received for three of us to share- two large bread sandwiches with one thin slice of ham (same as on the breakfast plate) and that was it. The bread was large and good but there was basically nothing in the sandwich. We also were given a small bottle of juice. That was 5 euros each. Seemed inadequate. Three smaller sandwiches with meat and cheese would have been reasonable. Two jumbo empty sandwiches which were not even cut into pieces to be shared between the three of us was not acceptable. This is the first negative review I have written after being on the Camino for 30 nights.
