Staff were nice and the location is great. Room was very small.
We stayed 2 times in the hotel. The first stay at the beginning of August was good for the nightly rate of $52.
For our trip back we booked again, saw that the rate went up to $152 but we took that for granted due to the high season in the city. However the room we got was horrible, hairs everywhere, AC not working properly and much smaller than the first stay while the same room was booked.
The best thing is the location.
We booked a triple room. It was a bit cramped. Too small for 3 people, bathroom was small. but it was clean.
Good for budget travellers and young travellers
Overall everything was good: the room was clean, and the location was excellent — truly perfect.
In the hotel chat they replied quickly and everything was clear and well-organized.
We would stay here again.
The only downsides:
There wasn’t a single hook in the bathroom or the room to hang towels. This was really inconvenient.
They didn’t provide extra tea , coffee and sugar until we asked for it.
The tea and coffee for three people were only given once at the beginning of our stay and never refilled. If you’re supplying a set for several guests, it should be replenished daily instead of just leaving what was there on the first day.
Apart from that, no complaints.
Recommended !
Great location. Offers a basic room for a reasonable price. Nice roomy shower. Nice staff. The only minus is that the walls are thin and noise travels right through them. Noise wasn't a problem after 11.
Amazingg and easy to find. Perfect room for just me.

Great location. Very nice staff.
BUT Extremely noisy room. No soundproofing as advertised. We listened to neighbours conversations, music and snoring. The bathroom floor was not properly washed. The room was stuffy so frequently had to open the window.
I ended up leaving after one night as the room was so awful. Cold, dark, paper thin walls. I had a room without a balcony so don’t know if that would have been better, but it was pretty much the worst room I have ever stayed in. Staff unhelpful. Cheap but definitely not cheerful. Good location though
The soundproofing in the room was quite poor, but it wasn't too disturbing for us anyway. The location was excellent. Special thanks to the really nice staff, great customer service!

I really liked the staff at this hostel, they were so kind and helpful! There was a match going on so prices in Madrid were high, but this wasn’t bad. Small room but great location and communication. Comfortable beds, a bit of noise from the street and next room, though it has been far worse in other places I’ve stayed here. I felt safe and welcome, so that was the most important to me!
The hotel was on the second floor and situated in an older Spanish building. (A lift was available). The staff and I got by with my very little Spanish. There was a map on the wall and a tear off copy which was very handy. It is close to Anton Martin tube station which with a little planning can get you all round Madrid. There are a lot of restaurant/cafes and the hotel is close to a square with more. I found a supermarket quite close.

The staff is curteuos and helpful.
Rooms are very small and in need of renovation, specially the bathrooms. Shower looks gross. There was dirt under the bed. Bed was okay, however it had just one long pillow on it; not good for two people to share.
Decent value for the price, but the room was tiny and cleanliness left something to be desired. There was mold in the shower and on the bathroom ceiling, and the blankets on the beds had visible stains/discoloration/potentially also mold. Room was tidied daily, but could use a good deep clean.
Location is great - 10 minute walk to Plaza Mayor, a Metro stop within a block or two - with plenty of good food/coffee/shopping nearby, and beds were comfortable.

The room was quite big and sufficient for a city break. We were outside reception unfortunately and it was quite noisy. Location is great for getting out and about in the city.
