Has anyone slept in or SEEN the inside of the Treehouse at Alb. Jakue?

I've booked the tree house at Albergue Jakue for my May Camino this year.
I need to find a bed for one of my pilgrims and I'm wondering if the extra bed is in the same room as the matrimonial?
Or is it in a separate room?
Does anyone have photos of the two beds?
Thanks!
Annie
 
Fail to prepare? reduce your risk by buying this book full of practical info.
2nd ed.
The description on their site isn't exactly clear, is it?

De nombre Maitenea, el lugar del cariño, en el Hotel Jakue contamos con la primera habitación en un árbol totalmente equipada con todos los servicios, un lugar de ensueño para noches especiales. Está dotada de una habitación con una cama y otra opcional para una tercera persona, un baño completo y está equipada con todas las comodidades, como aire acondicionado y televisor, entre otras muchas. Con una exquisita decoración


I would write to them to find out.
 
I actually stayed in the treehouse suite at Jakue. Fun experience. Only one large bed. Was certainly unique. Unfortunately I took no pictures of the interior. It literally is a treehouse. Bedroom, en suite bathroom, private porch. On a windy night it actually creaks a bit. Certainly an experience.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

There is supposed to be a bed in the loft. Was there not???
 
3rd Edition. Vital content training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
By the way, I've heard it pronounced sooooooo many ways.
I recently found this online:

Maybe Ivar or someone who is a native can tell us if this is correct?

Tim, how was it being over the bar? Was it noisy?
I've always wanted to sleep in the treehouse so I'm excited to have booked it.
But I need one more bed for my pilgrims and am hoping there is a bed in the loft, as the description says.

They have a FB page. Maybe send them a message there?

::😆: I HAVE written them, trecile. lol!
It took until today to get an answer and I'm a Leo, I want to know yesterday!
Anyway, they've taken out the loft bed.
There is only one "matrimonial" in case anyone is interested.
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).

There was little activity in the bar when we were there. It is directly over the outdoor patio area, but noise was not an issue for us.
