I truly loved my stay there. Jeli (sp?) was a wonderful host. The room was small but adorable, the view of the mountains was spectacular, and the location was perfect.

The only fridge was in the outside kitchen. Rooms are a little tight.

The location is fantastic. Close to both bus stops, restaurants, and even a stream to soak your feet after a hike. Full kitchen facilities. My room had mountain views which was great. I enjoyed the outdoor eating area, and loved watching the moon pop out behind the mountains at night. Geli was a fantastic host who kept everything super clean and running well. We communicated mostly with google translate. Modern bathroom although a little small.

It's not a negative - but future bookers need to understand that the rooms are not large. They have the double bed and room to walk around either side - and that's about it. But this area is about being out in nature... so you were either out walking - or home having a lie down. The room size is irrelevant - but you wouldn't want multiple suitcases! Bathroom is very compact, a large person would find sitting on the toilet a challenge... but for us it was fine. Also - as to be expected given building type - stairs only... no lift.

Las Arenas is a great town to base yourselft for walking and hiking nearby trails. Host Gelli was friendly and patiently used her phone and Google translate to explain the accomodation and also hold conversations about where we were from etc. Great parking in the big grassed area right outside the front door - which is also where campervans set up for free. Over the weekend this area was busy (~ 40 vehicles) and yet it was super quiet. Sleeping with windows open all you could hear was the bubbling river which the pension overlooks. 2 minutes only to walk to the bus stop that takes to you Poncebos (and other hike starting points). 2 minutes the other way and you have bakeries, cafes, resturants etc. I appreciated the use of the open air (semi outdoor) kitchen and all it's utensils. Been travelling for 4 weeks in hostels etc and it was nice to be able to cook up a simple and cheap pasta dinner for a change.

Everything. It had a rustic charm to it. it was very comfortable, had all that I needed for an enjoyable stay. The host was very friendly and kept the place spotless. I loved the view from my window.

Our stay at the Pension was great, parking with plenty of space right in front and the host is super nice! It was very convenient to have access to the outside kitchen. The kitchen equipment wasn't the cleanest, though this is not to be blamed on the host but unfortunately fellow travelers). Great location for access to the Picos de Europa with great hikes.

The bathroom has been updated, but it is very small. Nowhere to put things out. The room itself was OK sized (with 2 double beds), but no desk or places to put things.

Rustic charm, and the hostess was wonderfully helpful. Great location for exploring the Picos de Europa. Free parking. Sleep with the window open and let the babbling brook lull you to sleep. The town of Arenas de Cabrales is a sweet, quiet country town, with a very important cheese tradition. The kitchen facilities were great.

As it is an older building, you some times needed to decide on lamp or charger.

Our hostess Gelé was very personable and warm. Very little English-speaking was done in Arenas de cabrales and it was the same at the pension. But we wanted for nothing. The community kitchen allows you to keep a low food budget in a well stocked space. I shared a picture of the community space. Rooms on the river side allowed us to listen to the river and it was the best night of sleep our entire trip. I shared a photo from our window.

No frills but very comfy and cute little place, full kitchen beside the part with the rooms. Great value for money

Friendly and helpful owner at this nice hostel that is well located for exploring the region. There was a great kitchen for guests stocked with equipment, a fridge and some basic food items and the room was clean and comfortable. Would recommend.

The room was quite small for four persons and hadn't space for a table or something like this (but it had a balcony :-)). The bunk bed wasn't too spacious and the ceiling quite near. Only one (very long) pillow for two persons each.

A nice place: definitively very friendly staff, very clean and tidy, country-style, balcony on this (4-person) room. For this location, the price was moderate. The outdoor-kitchen is very useful and well-equipped. Parking on site or close by. Wifi excellent.

The kitchen area was outside which made it very cold (November) but covered over. No hot water to wash dishes and most of the utensils were dirty.

Location was great for the Cares trail hike. The woman was friendly (we used Google translate!). Wifi was great also.

Very small room, but bear in mind, for the price, it is the best you'll get.

Superb management. She went out and got me a fan during a heat wave! Wow, fantastic.

It's simple, nothing luxurious but that was ok

Great location and the location has everything you need to sleep and to make your own breakfast

Stayed in October 2021

Our room smelled very weird, it was small, and the walls were quite thin. Kitchen well-equipped and outside but has no oven. For this price it was the cheapest option we could get in las Arenas, but for us considering the price our expectation was not met.

Big and free parking lot, very clean, nice host and good location!
