I liked very much the "special offer" of Beliari albergue.

"The Camino is a great opportunity to leave "normal" behind you for a while. But what if that life haunts you digitally? Therefore we offer as a special service: no WiFi

"

It looks really nice but is completely full
Is there anywhere else to stay ?

The Pilgrim Office has an albergue, but it does not take reservations. It is the only other low cost accommodation.

L'Auberge du Pelerin is my personal favorite. Danielle is a simply marvelous cook, and runs a clean, tight ship. I look forward to seeing her again next year.

I have no basis for comparison but I stayed here in August and would have to agree about Danielle and the auberge.

Her stories of the Shikoku pilgrimage remain one of my favorite tales of the Camino.

I stayed in Gite Ultreia in September and have only praise for it.
It gets the thumbs up from me.

Stayed there last August. It was clean, the owners are friendly and centrally located. A good place to stay.

If you can get there early, the municipal albergue is the cheapest at €8 with breakfast, they just don't take reservations.

Thanks everyone for the advice

I really loved the La Napoleon Auberge just outside of town, within easy walking distance (on the Camino, actually!) Probably impossible to book, though. The owner is a wonderful Basque man, and he has an English wife. You can find out about the place only through the pilgrim office. Ask for the Auberge La Napoleon.

He (I think his name is Peli?) waits at the pilgrim office to pick up pilgrims who have just arrived on the train and haven't booked a spot, or he will come get you if they call him and he has room. He transports pilgrims in a farm truck ...there are wooden benches to sit on. The auberge is a small lovely farm with a green talking parrot in the main house, it sleeps around 12, and there's a great breakfast around a big table overlooking the road where the pilgrims are just starting off!

It was 15E with breakfast when I was there in 2013.

Go to the Pilgrim Office, and they will take care of you. For your date, there will be no problem. The Office operates the gite/albergue, which will have plenty of space at the lowest price in town.

Buen camino.
