Hello,
Does anyone on the Forum know if there's a list of all albergues that have private rooms?
Terence.
The municipal albergue is open if you call ahead to the xunta for the key. The Casa Garcia is open in the winter, but you need to call ahead. They have "other things to do" unless they know a pilgrim is coming! That is common in the winter for many places. Also, heat is expensive, so in the winter, it is turned on only when someone asks (complains??). Inside temperatures may be the same as outside temperatures!Casa Garcia in Gonzar, late November 2010 Luckily the Casa was open while the near-by municipal albergue was closed. Elsewhere, however, there was no ambient heat and the interior most FRIGID. Of course I wore my woolly hat indoors and since I was the only pilgrim there were plenty of blankets for tucking below and above my sleeping bag.
