Madrid hotel - hostels - correction

[Bob Spenger]

After I sent this, I remembered that I also stayed at one in Auch.
Although they are primarly for young people and I was in my seventies,
the fact that I was a pilgrim made it O.K. for me to stay there. There
is a similar one in Bilbao that is quite new and looks like a resort
hotel. I did not stay there, since it was on the outskirts of the city,
but the bus connections are not bad. The prices at such places are
intermediate between private refugios and cheap hotels. Some serve meals
at low prices.
