Generally, yes. You cannot sleep directly on the mattresses. Private rooms usually have linens, but the municipal, parochial, and private albergues do not. May can be cool or hot. A silk, nylon, or cotten sleep sack might be sufficient for your needs.

Many of the private albergues that I stayed in last fall had blankets; sometimes you had to pay for them. One parochial albergue had linens. I liked having my own sleeping bag, although it was a bit warm, so next time I may just take a liner.
