The cost for a pilgrim is 15e in a dorm room with a double bed, a single bed and 2 bunk beds - by which I mean one single bed on top of another. However I was told there were 6 pilgrims expected the day I left. Cost includes a meal (if you want it) with the hospitaleros and Priest. It is very similar to some Spanish refugios. There is a kitchen you can probably use but shop in Strove as the only food shops in Monteriggione are of the tourist kind i.e. expensive 'products typical of the region'. Be warned, if it is hot and you want to make an early start (around 06:30) there is nothing open for coffee/breakfast. | It is in an exceptional position on the main square of the castle.
