October 10
This is an albergue municipal in a re-purposed historic building.
Therefore, inside it is quite modern. It has complete facilities, 4-bed rooms,
a tiny chapel, and laundry service (you leave your dirty clothes and fee at the
reception area and later pick up fresh clean clothes).
When we register, the receptionist asks our ages--which, we believe,
accounts for us getting bottom bunks. We also buy new credencials, since our
current ones have only a few spaces left.
We attend a short service in the chapel. The hosteliers are German so the
service is in German. However, there is a woman who translates into Spanish and
another who translates into English.
All in all, as far as albergues municipal go (except for the sick bunkmate
in the middle of the night, but I can hardly hold that against the albergue), it
is a rather pleasant stay. You've gotta love a backpack full of clean clothes.
