The room is very small, there is no internet, when I said to the girl in the reception about it she said very indifferently that this is so, cannot do anything. For the towel I charged 1,5 euro. In the bathroom there is no hanger to hang your staff. All day long I was dizzy because of the smell of marijuana which was for them normal. The only positive thing is that this dirty and bad quality hostel in the heart of Madrid.

The keycard for front door and room kept failing. Then I had the choice between walking down and up 6 stories to het it fixed at the front denk or take a crummy kittel elevator Thatcher took forever. Of you don’t mind old and decrepit, the location is nice and the price Bert modest.

The location is central, but the facilities lack privacy and I did not feel safe.

Very central location, locker for about two suitcases with your own Pin number available for 24 hours for 5 euros. Plain bar with stools available to bring you supper to eat at, if you wish, near locker room. Breakfast included in the tavern/bar next door.

Cheap (by Madrid standards) and not very cheerful!
Staff were ok and check in efficient.
The room was pokey tiny, smelly and a bit dirty, in 3N i dont think the bathroom was cleaned amd if it was (big if) barely touched!
The bed was comfortable however. Lockers provided (not big enough for back packs or suitcases but enpugh for valuables and smaller back pack bags) but you need your own lock.
There is a basic b.fast provided which is ok for the price of the hostel.

Male staff at the front reception that night had bad attitude! If you asked him for bunk availability over the next few days, he would tell you to check online as he was too lazy to check from the system in front of him. He preferred munching on his chips and chatting with the girls there!
The room was very small and congested. Lockers in the room were broken. The door knob on the toilet door was broken for a very long time, I believe and had not been repaired. As such it cannot be locked.

The lockers did not have the hook or loop for you to lock them and some the doors of the lockers had been bent to take whatever was inside them, not a very safe place to stay (you stay at your own risk) place lacks security to say the least

This hostel is crowded, noisy from an attached bar, and the common area is messy, cheerless, and uncomfortable. They overbooked our room so much that many people had to change rooms during their stay. it's a drab and depressing place to stay.

The hostel was very near from the centre.
Unfortunately the elevator was not working that day and they have 6 floors. That was kinda annoying if you have to bring your stuff up.
But the rest it was a really great vacation 👍👍

Arrived at check in time of 2pm but very long que and disorganised (some people who just walked in were checked in straight away while others waited in long que). Toilet door in my room was hanging off the wall. This place needs a lot of work but is cheap & central and free breakfast was good.

I stayed in this Hostel for 4 Nights in a 4 Bed Dormitory. The hostel is perfectly located near Gran via and the metro station Callao. I was lucky to have the room for myself for the first 3 nights. The room was cleaned everyday and the room size was satisfactory. Each bed has a small lamp and power socket and you also get a free breakfast, even if it wasn't so filling. Even though the shower had a little bit problem with the hot water and the elevator was very, very small it didn't really disturb me. In conclusion this hostel offers a good value for money and i wouldn't hesitate to return should i find myself in madrid again in the near future.

This hostel is an ideal base for sightseeing in Madrid. I would be happy to stay here again and recommend this hostel. A small drawback was that the WiFi was not dependable and was somewhat sporadic. There's plenty to see and do within walking distance of the hostel. I also enjoyed a Segway tour (English).

The hostel was surprisingly clean and well maintained. A simple breakfast is provided (cereal, toast and coffee) which is better than nothing at all. Good location m, easy to find and to get around. No towels provided and only one sheet for the bed - do I use it as a base sheet or cover? I just wrapped myself in It instead. Also whilst not the hostels fault, unfortunately there was some guests who do not know basic manners - hair trimmings left in the bathroom floor and playing loud films/ music with no headphones.
