On my next Camino, I thought about splitting up this leg instead of trying to make it all the way to Astorga. Any suggestions on where to stay? Village/City doesn't matter :)
Don't take this personal but WHO knows what's ahead? I think we all know this. Lord some of ya'll. I just walked it in July. If I can do it again I will. I didn't think I needed to put a precursor that as long as I don't get hit by a meteor or trampled by a herd of wildebeests, I'll do it.

The info on prices has helped me in planning also. Thanks for the post, OP!
Thank you! Did you request to stay in Hemingway's room when you made the reservation? Or when you got there? I did a lot of Hemingway reading in college and beyond so that's part of the reason I chose to stay there
Thanks to you and @trecile for the Albergue San Nicolas recommendation! Glad to...
I have booked stops for my first three days of the Camino Frances.
Day 1 SJPDP- Gite Makila
Day 2 Aubergue Borda
Day 3 Hostal Burguete
After that I might just wing it the rest of the way. What I was looking for is advice and where to stop after Burguete. Zubiri is an option but I thought I...
