We loved staying here as it was perfectly located in the middle of everything. Staff were friendly and accommodating, and the room was in good shape. However, the shared bathrooms were quite small and uncomfortable to use. If you spend a lot of time in there, would be best to go for the private bathroom option. Thank you for our stay :)

The only positive aspect is the location: close to gran via ( a few hundred metres from metro Callao). The hostal is located on the 2nd floor with lift of a building. The room is extremely small, so are the beds. It was not clean. For the bathroom you have to wait a really long time to get hot water and then you burn yourself. The shower is a really small bathtub. The staff only speaks Spanish, not very friendly. Walls really thin, so you can hear everything from people talking to water running. We had to ask for toilet paper and the staff person asked for our room number.

It’s a good place to stay. It’s clean, 24/7 front desk service and you have the whole city behind you. Explore the night life with fancy views of the city right next to your hostel.

It’s really close to most of the Plaças. The subway and buses really easy to get to from here and it’s right across an old church. The rooms themselves are ok but they didn’t change the linen at all and we were there for 4nights! They didn’t change the towels until we asked for clean towels. The two ladies who man the reception smoke so the place reeks of cigarettes so badly it’s hard to breathe in the corridors. They have these filthy carpets in the corridors that reek of cigarette smoke. Bathrooms are a health hazard: I’d recommend a private bathroom if you choose to stay here....even then can’t guarantee they’ll clean it. Such a shame because the rooms themselves are airy and tiled so this keeps the cigarette smoke out but it doesn’t seem they enforce the no smoking rule because guests/staff smoked in the bathrooms, the reception area and the guests in the room next to ours smoked and the suffocating cigarette smoke wafted into our room from the balcony.

Excellent position closed by the Via Grande, Shops, restaurants and coffee bars.
The room was cleaned when we arrived however the towels were not changed for 2 days. The Wi-Fi is free but the connection is poor.
The staff was there 24h and they were all absolutely nice and always smiling.
I would totally recommend for a short stay!

Spotlessly clean. Bed was very short and I'm only 5'9". Smoking is allowed in rooms and can be overbearing. Excellent location

Good location for looking about central Madrid. There was a good atmosphere on the streets outside but didn't abate until 3:00 Sat night. Great for night owls and those wishing to party but a bit of noise for sleeping

Pros- walking distance to many tourists points Cons- Bed is super uncomfortable, and the bathroom has a odd urine smell!

The location is very central with good places to eat close by. The hotel is located on the second floor and accessed by buzzzing from street level. There is someone on reception 24hrs per day. The rooms are basic but functional. Plenty of hot water. Good standard of cleanliness. Staff friendly and helpful. Personally I would have preferred a key to access the hotel without having to buzz but this wasn’t a problem. For the price I paid to stay here for three nights, i was very happy with the hotel and it is a great base from which to explore Madrid. As a clean, affordable and functional place to stay with lots of amenities close by then I’d definitely return here.

It’s actually a residence building’s flat converted to a hotel. The receptionist was drunk when I came and I could not stay because my room was not ensuite. Not a place to stay obviously. The staff was not nice at all when I requested I room with bathroom. Not recommended.

Good value for money hostal in an excellent location for all central Madrid sites and close to a lot of bars and restaurants, especially those in Malasaña and Chueca.

We arrived a couple of hours early and we were greeted with a receptionist who was very annoyed that we didn’t speak much Spanish and that we arrived early. He didn’t answer any of the questions we asked and literally walked away while we were talking to him.

Nice, safe, and clean place, a few blocks from Gran Via and from Chueca, and in Malasana. The price was great too, especially for a room with private bathroom, which is rare in Europe.I would recommend it to everyone, but be warned that the vast majority of staff does not speak English. Ill be staying there again!

The hotel is nice, warm, conveniently located, private bathroom in the room, and has a small elevator to the reception. The service from the staff was fine. The room had a decent size and was very clean. Despite the hotel was warm, I was cold in the room and there were no extra blankets in the closet. There was a light in the patio (where my window faced) all night. And the room next to mine had the TV on super loud all night!! I think the staff should walk around the hallway from time to time to check that and request the customers to be respectful to others. I couldnt get good sleep or rest, despite I was bringing a mask and earplugs. I recommend this hotel only if youre spending a night and really want a bathroom in your room, because according to the rest of hotels in the area, the price is good for that.

I got off to a bad start with a rude welcome from an older gentleman at reception. Not a word of English spoken (luckily I have some basic Spanish or I would have been completely lost) No welcome/Hola/smile, just a card shoved in front of me to fill in personal details (in Spanish). Their website states they speak English & French...
I booked a double room, as my boyfriend was arriving later that night. The gentleman couldn't understand this & barked "uno, uno!". The hostel 'base rate' for my room is listed as for TWO guests. When my boyfriend & I arrived home later I was made pay another €10 for the privilege of him staying in our double room each night.
The ladies at reception on other days were friendlier, but still no English spoken. The rooms are decent sized for a hostel but have very basic & with dated furnishings. Hostel is in need of a complete refresh. The windows are obviously original features and it is extremely loud at night time and early morning.
The check-out time is listed as 12:00 on my booking, however it was 11.30am.
Otherwise, great central location in a quiet side street, just a minute from the shops of Gran Via and Callao. The room had a nice view of the church across the street & the cleaning staff were fantastic.
If you have 0 Spanish & the patience to shop around a bit, do it. You'll find far better service and standards and hopefully no hidden extra charges.

Good location, very clean, bring earplugs, the street can be very noisy, it is in the medieval part of town, narrow streets, no sound dampening.
Amenities: really none, I stayed 8 nights, but I was ok with what I got.
A microwave in a common area would be really good.
Catholic heaven: from my balcony there were two different Catholic churches within 150 feet . The closest one is only open on Sunday for mass. I enjoyed it

The hotel is cheap, clean and central, but it reeks of smoke (because the owners smoke up the hallway) and the bars below make enough noise until 6am on a weekend that you will not sleep. My room was ensuite but the TV small; one proprietor was friendly, the other not. You have to buzz in, and leave your key where anyone in the lobby could reach it, so you cant leave anything of value in your room. The hosts could change much of this (not all of it), but they choose not to. If you can pay more, do for more comfort. If you cant, well, at least its clean and ensuite.
