Hola, Henry,
I walked CdM in 2014 and stayed in Grajal assuming that there is albergue. It was planned but recession stopped the renovation. I don't know what the current situation is but it is possible to sleep there. See my Madrid journal:

Grajal de Campos post is no.130.
Ultreia!
I live a few miles from Grajal; last time I was there (with the Camino DitchPigs cleanup crew!) nobody in town knew what was up with that place, nor could they say who had the albergue keys. It was a project of the mayor who was voted out in the last election, so it kinda went away when he did. Or so says the barman.
Still, it's worth a try to ask. You might get lucky and get a tour of the palace once you're in!
you don't like Santervas?
you can always go straight out of Villalon along the two-lane to Villada, where there's a fine and underused pilgrim albergue, a warm welcome, and good food. Join the Camino Frances the following day at Moratinos.
