The hotel is at the top of a building with VERY uneven stairs; the worst I have ever known anywhere. Only some of the rooms have aircon. I thought mine did, but it didn't. I did have a very noisy ceiling fan all night (30°- 40° heat) and my room was under the roof itself so cooked in the day. Be careful what room you choose, especially in the summer. It was torture.

This is a budget hotel on the fourth floor without an elevator and without airconditioning on a busy street. That aside it's nicely done up with friendly staff and I enjoyed my stay in a room facing the courtyard. Madrid had a rare cold snap in late June so I survived without AC

Decent stay for the price. If you’re looking for a budget place to stay while visiting Madrid this is a good option. Hostal is up a few flights of stairs so if you have issues with walking or climbing, may not be the place for you. Place is fairly old and the bathroom seems to be a recent addition, but it is a plus having one vs. sharing one in other sections of the hostal. No AC, but the the overhead fan worked and kept us cool in the heat. Walkable to everything. Overall, not the fanciest place but was a good stay to set base for our trip to Madrid.

We loved how central we were while staying at Hostal Dolcevita. The staff were super friendly, and everything was neat and clean. If you are looking for a budget stay in Madrid (think one step above hostel), you would probably enjoy staying here. Be warned though, you will be climbing quite a few stairs to get there!

Helpful staff nearly always available. Very clean and beds made for us each day. On one early morning the lock jammed shut n the only toilets/shower available, with no one inside, and it took time for us to realise that no one was inside; so the facilities were out of use for an hour. However once the reception was staffed the staff sorted out the problem very quickly. Overall this was a very good place to stay, exceptionally convenient, and I would strongly recommend it.

Great location within the gay neighbourhood; close to all the attractions and to good restaurants. Not a particularily comfortable room though, and on the fourth (4th) floor without elevator, so it’s a walk up.

The hostal is really clean and very quite. The only thing is that if you have heavy luggage is really hard to reach it is on the 4/5 floor without lift.

Extremely well located, close by Gran Via and very quiet room. Congratulations to your staff, very helpful and friendly. Only drawback was it was on the third floor and no elevator- so you get your cardio workout! But overall excellent!

Nothing special. A beautiful old building but not all that well looked after. A most unfriendly welcome, reckoned we were never booked in there & tried to overcharge. We have to go back to N.Z. in Dec & go through BANK STATEMENTS to prove we had paid & bow much. Are you able to check for us & get the refund please? We have always found Expedia great, but certainly not this time. We found much more accom. 5min walk away at half the price . Certainly would Not recommend it to anyone. Alison Woodcock

The stay was nice and pleasant. Great location just two blocks away from Gran Vía. The only inconvenience was the lack of an elevator, the stairs were a bit uncomfortable. Not a big deal for me but it was for my 67 years old mother. Aside from that, I would recommend it. It’s right for the price.

Well, I liked the quaint element of the hostal. Its like being in a piece of history or a reminder of it. Not a modern, plush place but classic with a few, modern touches. NO bedbugs, mice or any other crawlers. I'm thrilled with that. No Air Conditioning Unit but a high ceiling fan was in the room and working if needed. They serve basic foods for a free, continental breakfast. I like that the small, dining room is set for all the guests who eat, dine together. Its like a community of sorts. The downside is that there are no elevators so one would have to walk to the hotel's 4th floor location but I was fine with that. Overall, im satisfied with my stay. The price was right. I felt at home and would stay there again.

La Dolce Vita is a lovely place to stay - vibrant, funky and great location. Tasty self-serve breakfast with rocket fuel coffee. Lovely secret roof terrace away from the bustle and steps from Plaza Paulo Zerolo with cafes and bars, performers from breakfast to late night cocktails - but all closes at 130am to aid a restful sleep! Highly recommend!!

I had a really good time in Madrid and the room provided everything it needed to: a good location and a place to sleep at night. The breakfast was a little limited but that was a minor inconvenience. There's a bit of a climb up the stairs to get there so maybe don't book if you have a pram/you are not very mobile.

Caution: there is no lift and it’s in the 3rd floor (that’s the fourth if your American). Nice enough for a hostel; en suite bath which was nice. It’s in the heart of the gayborhood, so lots of people out at night. It’s walking distance from the Art Museum Triangle, but be sure to use a maps app - Madrid is a maze and it’s easy to get turned around. Friendly staff, but elles no hablar Ingles, so polish up your espanol. Small room but had a ceiling fan. Breakfast included, but it’s minimal. No coffee/tea in the room.

While it was a long climb up several sets of stairs the cost and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff outweighed this drawback considering the very economical cost. The location was close to several attractions and the area was very interesting. It was also close to public transport and the airport bus stop.
