Last night in Portugalete we splurged on a four-star hotel (still less than $100). Would you say the towel is big enough?
It was heavy, too. I couldn’t bring myself to use another of these (waste all those resources to wash and dry it) so I just dried with Charlie’s towel.
We often do the same.
Very environmentally responsible.
It’s good to treat yourselves to a 4-star hotel now and then.
I also noticed that your menu del dia were more expensive than in the past. Is this a function of where you are?
The menus we have found certainly are more expensive than before. The Norte in general is more expensive since it is a tourist area for other reasons than the camino. But, also, there has been inflation. We are probably paying 30 to 50% more for hotels and restaurants than we did six years ago in 2018.
