Albergue de Meruelo closed?

Hello all,

I'll be starting on the Norte in mid-May and so I'm hip deep in research at the moment. I remember walking past Albergue de Meruelo when I walked the Norte previously in 2015, and was thinking that I might look to stop there this year... BUT I noticed tonight it's not listed on the Gronze guide anymore and a google search was inconclusive in terms of establishing whether it's still open or not. Does anyone know what the situation is here? Is it open or closed at the moment?

Thanks in advance!

That's such a pity, but thanks for the confirmation. I remember getting a really good vibe as I walked past there in 2015. The hospitalero was very friendly and the setting was v attractive, but I was set on Guemes at the time!
