Irishgoose,

The pilgrim albergue floor of the recently renovated Hospedario San Martin Pinario is a VERY good stop in Santiago! The building faces the north side of the cathedral.

I stayed here in simple pilgrim rooms, which are converted seminarians cells, in 2011 and December 2012 and found it comfortable and most convenient.

Most pilgrim rooms are singles with private toilet and shower at 23 Euros including a copious buffet breakfast; there are some cheaper multi-bedded rooms. Ask about these when you email your query for space to this address >> reservas@sanmartinpinario.eu. Do NOT use their on-line booking form which is only for more expensive and more elegant tourist accommodation on the other floors.

They are open 24/7 so that you can arrive at anytime, the obliging desk staff are multi-lingual, WiFi is free, there are multiple public spaces for casual conversation and the restaurant (open to all) serves a very good 3 course lunch or dinner with wine for only 12 Euros. Perfect!

Buen Camino,

Margaret Meredith
