Check out their Gronze entry. However they do not take reservations.

 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
The Herbon Monastry does not take bookings. It opens at 4pm but when I was there in September, people were lining up from late morning. I arrived at 11am and was 5th in line, pilgrims continued to arrive pretty consistently. My guide book stated it had beds for 20 but a sign on the door stated 30. I think there ended up being 28 of us the night I stayed. It is well worth the effort to get there and definitely do the tour of the grounds and pilgrims Mass before dinner.
