El Correo Gallego reports today that there are plans to open a new algergue in http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&clien ... 15&iwloc=A]Sánchez Freire 128, Santiago de Compostela[/url] that will open in May.
If this address is correct, it will be about a 20 minute walk from the cathedral, not far from were the Camino Portuguese comes in.
Greetings from a sunny and 20c Santiago,
Ivar
