I posted this in another thread in this section few days ago:
"...if you're still considering to walk Camino de Madrid I can write down my stages (you can also search for my CdM diary with photos and gps tracks here in this section from last year) with distances and short remarks on albergues. I don't think you should worry about closed albergues.
1.) Tres Cantos (29,93kms): albergue there isn't really albergue, it's more like refugio with place for three people to sleep in the basement of Ayuntamiento, so I doubt it would be closed anytime of the year.
2.) Manzanares del Real (28,83kms): there was an albergue but is closed now. I have slept in 15€ private room (3 beds). It is very convenient and hardly ever (maybe during holidays or fiestas) fully occupied.
3.) Cercedilla (22,22kms): did get to sleep in polideportivo at entrance to town for free. Sleeping on aerobics mats in small gym. Toilets and showers available.
4.) Valsain (27,92kms): I had info on albergue turistico there and thought of making shorter walk if going to Valsain instead to Segovia, also due to rain that day. Albergue was closed but two pensions are there. Few kilometers further is Granja de San Ildefonso with huge albergue turistico opened all year. If you choose to go to Segovia there's wide range of acommodation (Hostal Duerme Vela for example).
5.) Zamarramala (18,19kms): if you go directly to Segovia but still want to sleep in albergue, this is good choice since Zamarramala is only half an hour walk from Segovia. You can actually see it across the valley from Segovia alcazar (castle). It's free, brand new and you can get the keys (code) in small tienda on the right at village square. Owner lives nearby.
6.) Ane (20,81kms): opened all year because it is located in former school (no heating though) and keys obtained at first house on the right as you enter the village. Free. No shop there and bar opened (maybe) Fri&Sat evening!
7.) Nava de la Asuncion (29,69kms): very nice albergue as I have seen on the photos but was closed due to dontknowwhatreason. Friendly local authorities made possible for me to sleep in a classroom (showers and toilets available) in Casa de Cultura. They even gave me the keys to go in & out after closing time. Free of course.
8.) Villeguillo (18,37kms): no shop in this village but very friendly bar. Albergue with kitchen opened at all times since the hospitalero is living nearby.
9.) Alcazaren (19,66kms): keys available at Bar Real (directly on the Camino) all year round.
10.) Puente Duero (27,01kms): all year living-in hospitalero.
11.) Cigunuela (15,10kms): opened all year, keys with local lady, directly on Camino.
12.) Penaflor de Hornija (16,76kms): same as above.
13.) Castromonte (10,19kms): same as above.
14.) Tamariz de Campos (30,46kms): no albergue there although have been told that sometimes a teacher (lady from Austria) do take pilgrims overnight. Better end the day in Medina de Rioseco with albergue which should be opened all year but I'm not sure.
15.) Cuenca de Campos (10,77kms): same as Castromonte.
16.) Villalon de Campos (6,89kms): don't know if albergue here is opened all year but when it is there's a living-in hospitalero.
17.) Grajal de Campos (32,02kms): you can stay before Grajal in albergues in Santervas de Campos or Melgar de Arriba or push on approx.7kms to Sahagun. Albergue in Grajal should opened in 2013 but they ran out of funds and it's unfinished although showers and toilets are a gem. You can sleep on the floor. I have very fond memories of that place because it is in a renaissance palace and the mayor gave me the keys to it and I was lucky to sleep there alone (apart from some ghosts
)."
