Ledigos Bed Bugs

Time of past OR future Camino
First Camino. Starting SJPDP on August 8th, stopping along the way near Pamplona for a few weeks and starting again on August 30! (2016)
Just a heads up for those staying at El Palomar in Ledigos. I found a little black nest of bed bugs on the bed sheet just before crawling into my sleeping bag. When I informed the hospitalera she looked at it and said she would change the sheet immediately. I asked to switch beds instead (didn't sleep at all and covered myself with my bag) which she obliged. I'm not sure if anyone received any bites, but felt that I should post something for future travelers. Overall, the people at the albergue were really nice, just a bug problem.
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
El Palomar in Ledigos does have wooden floor in the attic that's why it's potentially bed-bugs dangerous. But it was perfectly clean and I didn't have any thoughts about staying there.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
Overall, the place was clean and well run. What I saw appeared to be a patch of their black specked, excrement on the crease of the fitted sheet and mattress. When we examined it more closely there were a couple of the little critters sitting in the area. I moved upstairs and saw nothing. Not sure of other bugs that do the same, but could be if solely located on that bed.
