Good location but they gave us an extremely small room for two people. We have two pieces of luggage, the second one no place to put it. The shower had no place to put the soap. and no place for any toiletries like deodorant or toothbrushes and toothpaste around or above the pedestal washbasin.I certainly will not recommend this hostel.

Staff and location were OK; however, we needed to sleep with earplugs for the 5 nights we were there. Drunks in the street from 2 - 6 AM, yelling and making noise. There are double pane windows on the room; however, they do nothing to reduce street noise. Most were speaking English, some yelling about Texas.
Room had listed amenities; but the flooring is coming apart and uneven, possibly a trip hazard.
The bidet is ACTUALLY only 3" from the toilet, no way to sit squarely on the toilet. They used a misleading image for the Family Studio bathroom on their web site. Also the faucet for the shower stuck out about 8" into 24"x24" shower enclosure.

So booked the basic room. No issues with it being basic. However having said this I was not away I would have no window! The bed was so hard too. I had some friends staying who had suites they had a super soft bed with duvet. I had a sheet. Only one power outlet. The room I had was next to the washing machines so could hear them constantly. There basic and there too basic.

The property was great with location and cost for three of us who are young travelers without a lot of money. We were hoping to be able to do more cooking in the hostel however there is no stove. Other than that it had exactly what was needed

Can't say enough good things about this property! Right off the Gran Via (a main thoroughfare in the center of Madrid), convenient to the Metro and buses, restaurants, shopping, and major sites of interest. It is not a fancy place but had everything we needed and great WiFi for the little bit of time we actually spent in the room. But mostly, I can't say enough good things about the people who worked there at reception, Andrea and Adrian! Their willingness to help with information, directions, and their command of English was so helpful to these Americans whose command of Spanish is sorely lacking! Multiple times Andrea's help and information really helped us out but without her kind help and attention to detail, we would not have been able to so seamlessly navigate the Covid testing we needed to do before entry into the US. Adrian helped us with the train schedules and station locations we needed for some day trips we had planned and both absolutely took care to explain everything we needed to know. This is not a fancy place, but safe, clean, comfortable beds and a unique and reasonable set up to stay right in the thick of things! And a washer and dryer to use from 6-10 PM and they provide the detergent (10 Euros to use-well worth it for these carry-on only travelers!) We and our friends had suites with a small kitchen and king size bed. Highly recommend!

I was moved to the Far Home Atocha a few days before departure due to water problems at the Far Home Gran Via. Free breakfast was offered to make up for the fact that I’d be sharing a bathroom.
Like many modern hostels, it appeared clean yet soulless and of course the bathrooms stank. The morning of check-out, the hot water failed and the staff member I spoke to about delaying my checkout for another 20 minutes so that I could wait until I had had a shower before I left, was weird about it at first, telling me something about how I had to book another whole day. At that point there was no surprise that no apology was offered for lack of hot water. The staff, aside from the one who checked me in, were generally unenthusiastic about customer service.

Nice hostal good for a single traveler, close to everything in downtown Madrid, transportation, restaurants, shopping, the only thing it’s noisy, because my room was next to the laundry room and reception

The better is the location: near all. You can explore Madrid walking. Is located half a block from la Gran Via street! Parking (expensive as in all Europe) is very near the hotel. The apartment is well equipped.

The room was fine but the bed did not have blanket. The social room where they serve the breakfast is so small and non comfortable at all. At night the boy that is in the reception sleeps there too.
At night it is not possible to event talk, the guy in the reception told me to go out of the building to talk by the phone. The location is dangerous at night.

love the location, it's just off Gran Via, and easy walk to most sites. the hostel is in residential building and fairly quiet, even its central location. the guy at the reception is very friendly, gave lots of advices for local places. bed is reasonably good, but it's light so does move a bit. I would definitely recommend this place!
