Twice Ive been to Albergue Izar and both times I was treated wonderfully by the owner Sonya .
The first time was when I injured my leg and upon checkout was waiting for a ride to take me to B&B for a couple days rest . She let stay in the community room until my ride came to get me a 3pm. The second time was after I returned from the B&B and was staying there when I asked her at 6 pm if there was a restaurant nearby to get a meal . (Dinner was at 8pm that night in the albergue) she told me to have a seat and commenced in making me a tasty meal . This was above and beyond my normal experiences I have had at other albergues .

I didnt thank her enough so I thought that I would continue to thank her here .

I stayed in Albergue Izar, in May 2014. Sonya was very friendly and helpful. Good accommodation. I would stay there again.
