Nestled beside a serene river in a quaint village, Pension Txomin Ostatua offers a tranquil retreat ideal for Camino del Norte travelers. The guesthouse is conveniently located with views of the gently flowing river adding to its charm. The picturesque village, complete with a grocery store, a bar with a terrace and a nearby restaurant called Restaurante Olaia, provides a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere.
The accommodation is particularly suitable for those walking the Camino del Norte, offering a restful stop just a short detour from the main path. Although it might require a 2-4 km walk off the Camino, many guests find this detour worthwhile due to the village's beauty and the quietness of the location.
Guests frequently commend the clean and comfortable rooms, often highlighting the spaciousness and views from their windows. The proprietor is noted for his kindness and helpfulness, enhancing the overall stay with his personal attention to guests’ needs.

Guest reviews about breakfast at Pension Txomin Ostatua highlight a significant inconvenience due to the lack of on-site breakfast options. The village itself appears to have no open establishments in the morning, forcing guests to travel to nearby Markina Xemein, approximately 3.5 kilometers away, to find breakfast. While there is a café next to the bus station in Markina Xemein, the necessity of commuting for breakfast is repeatedly noted as a drawback. Despite this, some reviews indicate that there was a communication about the bus connection, but the absence of a common area for breakfast at the guesthouse leaves much to be desired. Overall, while there is no breakfast provided at the guesthouse and the availability is tied to an external location, these conditions have left many guests dissatisfied with their morning meal arrangements.
Pension Txomin Ostatua provides a comfortable and welcoming experience for guests, particularly those embarking on the Camino.

While the pension itself doesn't seem to serve dinner, there are some local options. The neighboring restaurant, although closed on Wednesdays and a tavern that opens later offering pintxos are available for guests. There's also a good restaurant about 1.5 km away, Antsotegi and another option in the nearby village of Markina, which is reachable by bus or a 2.5 km trip. The small town setting of the pension includes two cafes, one praised for its really nice food, providing convenient and enjoyable local dining experiences.
