Hola
Can you share your experiences as I am planning my next Camino.
I did read about a new place which a member posted in a thread, a cheap albergue/hostal with a nice homepage, but after trawling the forum without finding it again, I now post this thread.
Thank you very much. :)

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
Not the hostal Duas Naçoes !
Very noisy. People entering in the middle of the night , shouting, stamping on the uncovered wooden stairs, a room without windows. Stay away from there !
The second time we booked an appartment via Airbnb in Porto. Far better.
Third time booked hotel Central in Matosinhos. Excellent choice. Public transport(metro and bus ) allmost in front of the door to go to Porto.

We used the Tattva Design hostel, very nice and located behind the train station Estacao Sao Bento.

Not having stayed there yet, but found this Seminario de Vilar and have reserved 2 nights in September. Good location. Not cheap (25 euros/night), but private w breakfast included. Looks a bit of a fortress, so not a boutique, nor quaint. http://www.seminariodevilar.pt.vu
 
...and ship it to Santiago for storage. You pick it up once in Santiago. Service offered by Casa Ivar (we use DHL for transportation).
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

I started in Porto on May 13. Stayed at a small hotel named Hotel Poivera across the street from the train station. Hotel kept my luggage for free. The room cost 50€. After completing my Camino, I returned to pick up my suitcase and the fellow charged me just 25€ To stay the night as he had late cancellations. Not an Albergue, but very reasonable and convenient.
 
I strongly recommend the Albergue de Peregrinos de Porto to
anyone starting their camino in or going trough Porto. This isn't just a place to stay and sleep. The owner and Hospitaleiro have been pilgrims and know, understand and care about your journey. They are helpful and get people to share and exchange thoughts . A wonderful warm place to stay in a beautiful but a bit impersonal city for aPilgrim.

The Poets Inn - stayed in 2014 - found it very good
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
