Late arrival in Ourense...where to stay?

[Geopatriot]

I'll be arriving quite late to Ourense tomorrow (a Sunday) around 17:30. Has anyone stayed at the Ourense albergue in the past week? Was it completely packed with pilgrims or did it seem like it had extra capacity? Any other recommendations for cheap stays in Ourense?

In 2013 we stayed in Hotel Alitania 35E for single. Other pilgrims there and handy for leaving in am.

I stayed at the Grelo Albergue, a couple of weeks ago, and there was plenty of room. Cost = 16 Euros.

The albergue in Ourense is really quite large (40+ places) compared to most on the VdlP, and I think most people who were planning to do just the last 100km would probably try to get there for Friday or Saturday, so Sunday might be a relatively quiet night. The doors close at 10pm.

I stayed in a commercial tourist aubergue on the left hand side of the road as you walk up the hill towards the other aubergue. Clean, spacious and around 10 minutes from the old quarter. 15 Euro if I remember correctly and it has wifi.
