Ferrol is a much larger city, so it is quite different. Very good food, though.

There is no Albergue in Ferrol. Lots of good value hostels. It is a lovely (by the sea) CITY. Any pilgrims are generally moving on to start 1st day of Inglese.

The food is excellent. Generous tapas

I enjoyed my stay in Ferrol. Hotel Magdalena, in Rua Magdalena. 16 Euros a night - in a single en-suite room [May 2014]. And an excellent Menu del Dia for 8 Euros in the friendly bar under the hotel - more than I could eat!
I would happily walk that camino again ..... but seem to be booked up until 2019!!!
