If anyone opened a decent hostel in siguieros they would clean up as regards pilgrim business.
Agree on the distance. Extra 3k can be tough at the end of the first day especially if not expecting it b
Pls feel free to contact me, I walked el ingles last year.
I am sure the others have some sound advice but I didn't notice you asking for any ;-)

People express their opinions and experiences all the time, and you should keep in mind that they are opinions. Also keep in mind context. Anne thinks there is some kind of bias against anyone who completes only the last 100km, which is completely untrue.

Hi,
I was lucky enough to complete this camino last month (March 2013) and will be more than happy to answer any questions you have.
