Thank you for this list. I know how much work would have been involved in making it, but is there any possibility of adding in the names of the organisation or individual running the albergue? In some situations, this may be important. Also, if you could put this on a pdf, that would be great.

In the Via Podiensis sheet, we have the proprietors, and I confess that each of the last two years I have told myself, "I need to add that to the Spanish form," and then have failed to do so. Sigh. I have just now made that change. It'll trickle in, but in the near-term I don't have the time to manually add all of that.

As for the pdf idea, I get why you would prefer that format, but I'm keeping it in sheet form because I think there's greater functionality. I know that if I'm taking a printout on the road, I don't want all the info included in these spreadsheets, so in that case I would save a copy of the sheet, delete all the columns that are extraneous, the rows that aren't relevant, and then maybe resize the row/column width and font according to my preferences (save those eyes, @Tincatinker !). Plus, it continues to update as a google sheet, whereas a pdf would be static.
