Facilities in albergues

Roberto Mitelpunkt

El peregrino judeo.
Time of past OR future Camino
Aragones, Invierno
hello dear friends
This time Camino Portugues is my choice
I have a very light sleeping so I prefer no to use large dormitories.
Will I find private rooms in albergues or hostales/pensiones in the Coastal?
It will be at the beginning of May 2018
Thanks for your information,
Roberto, the Jewish pilgrim.
 
Altus ANDES 400 H30 sleeping bag
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-
I walked the Coastal in June from Porto to Pontevedra. BTW I snore. I found most place fairly empty and never heard any complaints. There are plenty of private places and inexpensive hotels, so no worry. I spent one night in a crowded public in Caminha because the ferry was not running for 2 days (believe it or not a beer fest that weekend) and was totally harassed in the morning for my snoring by some total a..h.... My response was next time you "find a room."
 
Altus BALI Sleeping bag liner
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
Take a look in the resources section of the forum. There's a file called Sleeping on the Portugese.
From memory, none of the albergue we stayed in between Porto and Camina had private rooms. There's plenty of other options and a couple of private Albergue's that do I think.

We used Ohropax soft foam ear plugs, brilliant can't hear a thing while you sleep.

Buen Camino

Haven't done the Portuguese. I discovered on Frances a few Albergues that had single rooms for 'sick' pilgrims. Hope it works out for you. I now it's 10 days past, but hope you had a blessed Hanukkah season....
