I'd agree with this. However, they sometimes provide a better way to mingle with other pilgrims, if you are seeking that. Once you get out on the camino, you'll find that there are lots of different situations, and the variety is part of the fun.Private rooms in albergues are not always good value for money.
Which app did you use?I used an app that did show the places they listed (most of the allergies on the Camino Frnaces) and separate weather they had rooms, ensuite or shared bathrooms, price, and many were reservable on line with out a card to hold them, or had the phone number were you can talk with them directly(big plus). Also on the app it showed the location in relation to the Camino trail, as some one stated a place close by or just off the trail can be an advantage in price, quality, and services?
Hi Cathy and Hans, there are some other threads about this subject - including this one: https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/private-accommodation-and-rooms.35458/
Buen Camino to you both.
Which app did you use?
Which just led me to a thought...maybe you have some recommendations of the best churros along the route? Once I have our lodging sorted out, the next step will be to focus on the other important stuff!
Well, finally, finally, somebody who asks a real important question!
Try Chocolateria Valor in Pamplona; see ubication here
Please, don't go for the stale products offered in bus terminals.
Churros come with chocolate, usually. And you will discover the literal meaning of the saying "las cuentas claras y el chocolate espeso". Roughly translated, it is "bills should be crystal clear, and the chocolate thick". And the Spanish version is really thick.
Hi everyone...a couple of newbies here that will be doing our first Camino starting September 13, 2016 (well, we drove a little of it a few years ago while on vacation in Spain...and ate churros in Santo Domingo de la Calzada...but I don't think that counts).
We are wondering if there is a list somewhere of albergues that have separate rooms for couples, or any individuals that would just like a little more privacy and quiet for sleeping? I have perused the downloadable list of albergues and the facilities they offer, but I can't tell from that if there are rooms other than the dormitory style. We also have the Miam Miam Dodo guidebook which appears to give a very comprehensive list of albergues and other accommodations, but not a lot of details about what is in the albergues.
Please forgive me if this question has already been answered and then kindly point me in the direction of the answer!
Thanks so much, in advance.
Brierley's guidebook to the Camino Frances notes all the albergues that have private rooms.Hi everyone...a couple of newbies here that will be doing our first Camino starting September 13, 2016 (well, we drove a little of it a few years ago while on vacation in Spain...and ate churros in Santo Domingo de la Calzada...but I don't think that counts).
