Casa Fernanda question

Time of past OR future Camino
04/2022
Hello,
My husband and I are planning to walk the Central Camino from Porto through Vila do Condi then on to Rates, etc. We plan to stay in small hotels/private rooms, but I have read so many wonderful things about Casa Fernanda. Would love to stay there. What extra things would we need to stay there? Sleeping bag? Pillows? Sleeping bag liner? Towels? Trying to minimize weight.
Thank you all!
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
Hi canary...this is what Fernanda wrote me when I reserved:
you don't need to worry about anything. We prepare dinner and breakfast. Our house is a shared room with nine single beds and two bathrooms and with everything included it's 20€.
 
As I recall, bedding was provided, but you should bring your own towel.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
In case you don’t already know, Fernanda has one private room for couples that even includes its own bathroom with shower. We stayed in that room and it was lovely. Just ask if it’s available when you reserve. Enjoy!

You won't need bedding (although I took my sleeping bag for use in other places), but you will need a towel. If you want to wash your clothes, there's a 'sink' outside, but no washing machine. Highly recommend Casa Fernanda. Great fun, great hosts, great food and hospitality.

I stayed at Fernanda’s for a couple of days as a friend last week.
It will be very busy the coming times and she has limited place so let her or me know when you want to be there. So she can say if there is a place for you.
Fernanda has no smartphone nor answers emails regulairy so you can pm me and I am in contact with her husband very regulairy.
