Lezama - Albergue de Peregrinos
Thanks, Myra!Zumaia - Albergue de Peregrinos Convento de San Jose is donativo. Stayed there in April. Run by volunteers.
Good catch -- thank you!Albergue in Bustio (few km before Colombres, just after the bridge where you enter Cantabria from Unquerra) is also donativo. it is run by two very nice ladies - mother and daughter. Double rooms with bathrooms, wooden furniture and embroidered bed linen. Breakfast. You can also give your clothes to the ladies in the evening and you'll get them washed.
Anybody has updated this list for 2023, please?When I was preparing updates for the guidebooks yesterday, it struck me that there is currently an abundance of donation-based albergues on the Norte (and, to a lesser extent, on the Primitivo). I've tried to compile a complete list--check it out:

Check out all those communal meals between Güemes and Luarca! I know people complain about the asphalt in Cantabria, and understandably, but you can't beat that hospitality.
- Villaviciosa – Albergue de Peregrinos la Payariega (communal meals)
- Amandi – Albergue La Ferreria (communal meals)
- Grado – Albergue Villa de Grado (breakfast)

And for anyone looking to launch a new donativo-based albergue, the second half of the Primitivo seems like it could use you!

Camino del Norte Accommodations - 2024

Is the new place nearby?Dang, this one makes me really sad. Albergue La Ferreria in Amandi has permanently closed. The owner of the house decided to not renew the lease.
Sergio has lined up a new place, so he aims to open a new albergue in 2024, so that's the very large silver lining. I'll miss that space, though.
