Property was a cool old building that unfortunately was lacking some maintenance! Room was OK and it was clean but things needed repairs. Signage could be better at the door explaining where check in was located. The young lady who checked us in was very pleasant and kind! Cheers and Gracia! Mike and Ally 🇨🇦

Simple, affordable hotel, conveniently located.

The single room is very compact (I'd go as far as saying the photos are misleading), with windows facing the building's ventilation shaft. Although the bed is a bit uncomfortable, the room provides all necessary amenities, and the hostel is conveniently located. It offers good value for the cost.

I really enjoyed my stay here. It’s a great location. Not all the staff speaks English, but some do. They are nice, and were very helpful whenever I had questions. I really liked my stay in Madrid, and Hostal La Fontana helped me enjoy everything!
