Comments on Gronze suggest that places at the albergue at Betanzos are limited whilst renovations are underway. Does anyone know if that is still the case? Thanks
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
I was told in Ferrol at office on May 7 there are only 6 beds available during the renovations. She didn’t say when the work will be finished. I took that as an apportu ity to treat myself to a night at the Hotel Villa de Betanzos. When you start in Ferrol get your stamp at the office and a briefing. You'll learn if it's finished. Alternatively, make an alternate route enervation with a cancelation policy allowing you to cancel if you prefer the municipal albergue.

I did exactly the same. I read that there were only 6 beds so booked a hotel. I was looking forward to staying here as I've read good things but I leave next Monday and I think it might be busy... so I now have a bed in the hotel :)
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Thanks for the replies. Currently in Betanzos and can confirm that the albergue is limited to 6 places. This situation will apply indefinitely. If you arrive on the weekend they will accommodate any overflow in a nearby school.

Good to know! We’ll be there in August!
