My guide book said Lezama Hostel, 12 miles away, was closed until June. Sergio‘s guide book said it opened in April. We believe what suited our needs best; so, we went with the assumption it would be open. I should have telephoned Lezama Hostel and have gotten the information directly from the source. They were closed. A pleasant 12 mile walk became an arduous 21 mile.
