Greetings all!
I’ll be in Deba on August 25th. I started looking for a room for my wife and I but found nothing on that date. The Geltoki Pilgrims Hostel (an old train station) has 56 beds and I saw it got good ratings from pilgrims. Can any of you who have stayed there give me some information on it? Also do you think there will be a race for beds in late August? I’m guessing you can’t book ahead? Or can you?

Friendly,cosy albergue,very busy at the end of April. We had to register at the tourist office which closes between 2.30 and 4 so there was a long queue waiting at 4pm but can have lunch in the Plaza beforehand.
sorry,no idea what it would be like in August.

I really enjoyed the albergue in Deba when I was there last July, but it did fill up quite quickly, and a number of pilgrims had to go on farther.
August is a popular month for Europeans to vacation, so try to arrive early.
