The room was very small. The bed very comfortable. You are on a main street with bars across the street & cars driving by all night. This building is four Hostel's on all the floors. They do have an elevator however when we arrived to check in it was out of order & had to haul the luggage up to the third floor. It was working by the time we returned from our evening out. This was perfect for our last night in Madrid.

Wonderful place to stay for a few nights. Don’t be “scared” by the fact that there are a few hostels in the same building or even on the same floor. This one is quiet, clean, with 24/7 desk service and a great team taking care of all your needs. I’ve been in smaller rooms at 4 star hotels. Nice bathroom too with good water pressure. Also, it’s quite surprising and lovely to have always free water, milk, tea and pastries available in the kitchen. And you can’t beat the location which is basically walking distance or a short subway ride from most iconic places and museums in Madrid.

Central, basic, very clean

While it was small and basic, the room was very cozy and quiet, and we slept amazingly well. All was new, all was clean. Service in the reception was efficient and nice. Location is as central as it gets. You basically get down and you're just in the center of Madrid. Great experience.

This room had a great space with a private bathroom. Friendly staff and free snacks, coffee, water was a plus. It did not disappoint us even though it’s a “Hostal” we felt like it was a small hotel the whole time. A little confusing to find at first, it’s located in the same building as other hostels but we figured it out pretty quickly. Very safe!!! Great food options near us, walkable to almost anywhere. Definitely recommend

Pros: very clean, good water pressure in shower, common area with coffee and water, staff was pleasant and personable. Good location to walk in Sol area. Cons: even by European norms the room and bath were uncomfortably small for 2 people. Our room price was ridiculously expensive for this caliber of accomodation- over $200/night USD. Would not recommend for 2.

Horrible staffing! They are never around. And when they finally arrived, they do not solve anything.My mom had a stroke and died suddenly.As a result,I had to leave two days earlier to attend her funeral in Venezuela. I asked for a rain check or refund. They requested my email, and so far NO ANSWER. WILL NEVER STAY AT THIS PLACE AGAIN! Expedia should erase them as a choice.
