Casona de Rabanal-Oca

Great place

Good overall

Clean, comfortable, and had everything our family needed for our trip.

It would be nice to have some coffee (instant or coffee bags), sugar, etc. for those of us who want to leave very early in the morning. But we’re very grateful for everything else. Thanks!

Quiet and clean! Nice room

One of the bathrooms had a toilet issue- otherwise all was well

Normally location would have been good (exclude festivals). Nice patio. Good kitchen equipment. Good fridge. Washing machine.

This is NOT about the noise of the 14/8 - 16/8 festival (see below). How ever we had to get some sleep over the noise of the DJ shouting etc. So we had to close the “sound proof windows (which cannot understandably stop 120+ dB) so the room was a hot box. Thus fan is absolutely essential during festivals… No instructions how to use the induction stove top. There really should be the basic oil, vinegar, salts, pepper, a couple of spices maybe. But all empty. Does a pilgrim have to buy all this at the inflated local dispensary? Most places have these basics. The chairs in the patio were all dirty - cannot sit there. The washing machine had no English instructions - so I had to help an American. When there are shared bathrooms - always there is a mirror outside the room (eg bedroom) so people putting makeup and sunscreen don’t take up toilet and shower time a but there were none. Just many little things missing. Note it was 14/8. Ear splitting electronic music until 5:30am - 3hrs sleep only before next Camino stage to Molinaseca - 28km. This review does NOT cover this except for a fan. That is a Spanish festival to note for the future. The fact that our window faced directly onto the plaza was also very unfortunately / unlucky.
