Albergue Orion is beyond perfect. Daniel, who built this place, is a peregrino himself and knows exactly what is required. The washing tubs have washboards and plugs, the bathrooms have soap and towels and even air fresheners. The dormitories have sheets that fit and lockers for everyone. There is even an indoor clothesline on case it's raining.
The grounds are fresh and clean and the food (get the Korean!) is terrific. Everything so impressive I just love this place

We stayed there in 2017 and loved it. They served Korean Bibimbop. But I heard that the Korean lady moved to England so do they have another Korean chef?

There was a Korean woman cooking there in May.

Agreed. I stayed there in May also. She is still there, and I can say the Korean lady’s name but dare not try to spell it. Sam from England is also there. Bothe ladies are angels!
