Hostafrancs

A nostalgic hostel

Carrer Creu Coberta 22, the address of the old cinema Arenas and then in XIX century, of an hostel that became very famous and popular. The manager was Joan Corrades i Bosch, a man from La Segarra who missed so much his native town, Hostafrancs de Sió, that Hostafrancs was the name he chose for the hostal.
