Hotels/Campings/Youth hostels, etc

[Silvia]

Hello,

My name is Silvia and I am new here.
I have a question about the albergues/refugios (not sure if they are the same). How do they work? Do you just go there and if they have rooms they let you stay? Or do you need a reservation?
Can you also recommend other type of accommodation in Sarria, Portomarin, Palas de Rei, Cebreiro? Like campings or youth hostels?

Thank you very much in advance and excuse my ignorance.

Silvia

Hi Silvia

You show and pay and sleep. Generally there's no reserving.

I don't know anything about camp sites or youth hostels in those places but they all have loads of pilgrim accommodation.

And albergues and refugios are the same thing.
