Overall clean and modern hostel that’s a great value. Located in a very central location that’s close to the train station and walkable to the city. The rooms are slightly smaller but that’s to be expected given it’s a hostel. I’d stay again when visiting Madrid.

Nice location, not too far from the station. Hostel itself is clean, nice rooms as well. Only negative is the fact I was on the ground floor right next to the seating area so you could hear everyone and it’s not pleasant at 1am when there’s a big group just laughing away non stop. You can also hear everyone getting ready for breakfast and just chatting away as which is frustrating and breaks your sleep.
