New Albergue Lua's website

You can book a place ahead in this albergue.
The website has some excellent info on the Santiago - Fistera route.
The profile maps on the Etapas page are very interesting.

Hi, I'm the maintainer of the web of Albergue Lua http://www.alberguelua.com Lua. Thank you very much for your recommendation. The page is now constantly changing, and I want to have a complete guide on where appear from the bus schedules at the airport to the sources of water, dining, medical facilities, etc. in this part of the way that can be downloaded. Of course any feedback is appreciated. Stay tuned

Albergue Lua in Negreira (Camino Finisterre). The assistant hospitelero had a Pitbull that was barking anytime someone came to the door. The hospitelero was just getting up (4PM) after a night of drinking and had to be reminded to go outside to smoke (the odour of smoke lay heavy in the albergue). The bathroom was dirty (had not been cleaned) No hot water (apparently accidently shut off during the drunken party the night before). Between the dog, the television, and the loud conversations between the hospitelero and his buddies, there was no peace to be had.

After an hour of this I packed up and moved on a km to the municipal albergue where there was peace, hot clean showers, and other pilgrims to talk to. I did get my money back with apologies from the assistant hospitelero.
