This property was a great value for our family of five. The room is pretty much no frills with three sets of solid bunk beds with very comfortable mattresses. Exactly what we were looking for! The location is quiet and the blackout curtains on each bunk made for great sleep. The breakfast buffet was better than expected with multiple fresh options. All of the areas we visited in Madrid were within walking distance of the hostel. Lastly, the staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. Will definitely keep this company in mind when visiting other cities as they do have other locations.

First time to write a review for a hotel/hostel. I just really need to share how great this hostel is. What you see in the pictures is what it is, modern, looks clean. The only difference is the room we had. It looked a little smaller but it didn't matter. My daughter loved her stay too. She would always play around at the mini plaza while we waited for my wife and other relatives. She even cried when we told her we were leaving. The Service is the best part of the hostel, especially Ibrahim, who assisted us on our checkin and also on the issue we had on our transfers. We'll definitely go back. Thank you.

Nice hostel. Booked a private room as a single but was given a quad room with 4 beds. Unfortunately its layout then meant the main area didn't get cooled adequately by the AC and stayed around 25 degrees, so opening the window was the only option, with noise all night long.

This was a great hostel in a great location! So much to do and see within walking distance. Private rooms were nice & spacious. Our only complaint is that there is a lot of noise/activity at all hours of the night in the courtyard area. Other than that it was a great place to stay during our time in Madrid.
