Olivares,

El Burgo Raneros is not exactly the hub of the universe! I usually stay in the municipal albergue Domenico Laffi on the plaza Mayor. Directly opposite is El Perigrino a small hostal with simple rooms above a bar/restaurant. Tel 987 330 069. When the albergue was closed for recent renovations this provided an affordable alternative.

For a small town of about 200 there are quite a few possibilites. The municipal that Margaret mentioned has 30 beds and a large, fully equipt kitchen. Internet is also available and wifi in the 2 bars across the street. I was there for 2 weeks in July as a hospitalera and pilgrims were pleased with the albergue. But if you are still interested in private accommodations, the 2 bars also offer rooms (El Peregrino mentioned above and Las Piedras Blancas tel: 987-33-00-94 / 607-16-39-82). In addition the owner of Las Piedras Blancas has a private albergue called La Laguna. A 5th option is another private albergue called El Nogal: tel 627-22-93-31.
Hope that this helps!

I had a great experience in the private albergue Santa Clara in Bercianos del Real Camino about 8 km before El Burgo Ranero.

Follow-up-- I called Hostal Piedras Blancas in El Burgo Ranero and plan to stay there. Codecables-- I am taking in the recommendation you offer as a backup plan. Many thanks.

That's a very good place . I was a hospitelero at Bercianos last October and I can recommend the Donativo albergue . Hospiteleros provide breakfast and evening meal and with an Oracion at 8pm - the donations go towards the next nights meal and the upkeep of the 17th century building . The floor is amazing and made up of polished stones laid 100's of years ago . It's a beautiful , soulful place .
