Dear Fellow Pilgrims,
Please advise as there is so many different opinions regarding Borres v Herminia. We are going to start our Primitivo on Monday 8th June in Oviedo (yay ). I have just healed my hip tendon injury (at least I hope so) so I'd rather not challenge myself more than required. Yet I want to go for Hospitales route. Staying at Borres makes a difference for the next day. On the other hand it's good to have a good rest and people report such a bad state of this albergue. But I have also read opposite opinions - i.e. it's only bad PR. I would be massively grateful for sharing your experience and/or what would be better choice. What to expect in both places. Is that near bar still open? Thank you.
