Liendo accommodation

In the thread about staying in paradors, my comments led to a paragraph on the Posada, about which I share @Nikandtony's sentiments; I reproduce it here for readers:

I remember walking into Liendo with two German nurses and directed them to the albergue and told them I was going off to the Old People's Albergue (Posada la Torre de la Quintana) and that they should drop by for a beer at 6.00. When they did so, I was able to reassure them that the Old People's Albergues were set aside for those who had sufficient spiritual purity that they did not have to do penance in the conditions of the regular pilgrims' albergues. They received this information with great attention over their negronis (my treat, of course, for decent people always treat nurses).
