Hello, I've just arrived at my hostel in León and the cathedral will be closed before I could get there and the hostel's reception is closed - can anyone recommend a good place to get a sello in the evening? Or should I just ask in some bars?
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

I am sure that the Madres Benedectinas Albergue will be manned/womanned(!) until lights out and they will surely give you a sello, even if that is not where you are staying. And let me recommend Night Prayer and Pilgrim Blessing there, although it may be too late for you if you are staying in another albergue which closes at 1o. But every time I have been there for Night Prayer there have been pilgrims other than those staying in the albergue. The hospitaleros/as there are exceptionally welcoming, in my experience.
