Hola
Can you share your experiences as I am planning my next Camino.
I did read about a new place which a member posted in a thread, a cheap albergue/hostal with a nice homepage, but after trawling the forum without finding it again, I now post this thread.
Thank you very much. :)

St James' Way - Self-guided 4-7 day Walking Packages, Reading to Southampton, 110 kms
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Not the hostal Duas Naçoes !
Very noisy. People entering in the middle of the night , shouting, stamping on the uncovered wooden stairs, a room without windows. Stay away from there !
The second time we booked an appartment via Airbnb in Porto. Far better.
Third time booked hotel Central in Matosinhos. Excellent choice. Public transport(metro and bus ) allmost in front of the door to go to Porto.

We used the Tattva Design hostel, very nice and located behind the train station Estacao Sao Bento.

Not having stayed there yet, but found this Seminario de Vilar and have reserved 2 nights in September. Good location. Not cheap (25 euros/night), but private w breakfast included. Looks a bit of a fortress, so not a boutique, nor quaint. http://www.seminariodevilar.pt.vu

I started in Porto on May 13. Stayed at a small hotel named Hotel Poivera across the street from the train station. Hotel kept my luggage for free. The room cost 50€. After completing my Camino, I returned to pick up my suitcase and the fellow charged me just 25€ To stay the night as he had late cancellations. Not an Albergue, but very reasonable and convenient.
 
I strongly recommend the Albergue de Peregrinos de Porto to
anyone starting their camino in or going trough Porto. This isn't just a place to stay and sleep. The owner and Hospitaleiro have been pilgrims and know, understand and care about your journey. They are helpful and get people to share and exchange thoughts . A wonderful warm place to stay in a beautiful but a bit impersonal city for aPilgrim.
