The hostal is located in the vibrant city center of Madrid. The rooms have a certain charme of a prison cell and offers the bare minimum a budget accommodation needs to offer. Unfortunately, the unqualified receptionist, the permanent running water of the toilet and the constantly blinking lights of the fire detector did not leave a positive impression.

Terrible attention, dirty rooms and the most unfriendly staff of all Madrid

I rated it higher than I would have because it was super cheap. It’s a dirty place but what can you expect. The security is not so tight, a homeless man tried to walk out with a blanket and sheets. They also let people sleep on the sofas that are around the tables in the common area so it smells like feet and people who have not showered in a while, which is the same place breakfast is served. The place is not exactly at number 3, walk down a bit and you will see the hostel sign. I called them to see which address it actually was and was on hold for so long I hung up bc international rates. They were not friendly at all and forgot to give me my passport back. But I remembered in the middle of the night and they guy working then was a lot nicer than the ladies earlier. The elevator was leaking lubricant oil and stained my luggage and my clothes on the way out. Wasn’t worth staying there to save the money. Unless your 17 and don’t care at all or want this type of experience, I would skip it

I m sorry to complain, very seldom I had this to do, but sometimes in life u have to do it in order to help others. Skip this place 1.unprofessional staff 2.they let check in till 6 in the morning without give basic educational guide lines to customers, so it is impossible to rest during the night 3.they don't have any securities system or watchman, in fact anyone can enter daytime or nighttime in the hostel, it happened also some guys were stolen their belongings

Lovely Hostel which was clean and great location. The only problem was Reception took so long to serve you even if checking in at 2:30 am. I had a further nights stay impending but the above fact coupled with the fact you pay 10 euros if you want to leave your suitcase at any time lead to me cancelling it and going elsewhere. Also strict 10am cut off for breakfast including drinks.

A great hostel with good breakfast and location just the check in even at 2am took so long and check out took time too. Make sure you get your drinks and food for breakfast before 10am as they shut it off swiftly. Clean and tidy rooms

On my arrival i noticed that my room did not have a door knob. I had to request to have a change of room. The second room was not clean, as well as the showers. I had to go over my friends hostel to take a shower. My room pass would rarely work so i had to go to the reception to reactivate it. I do not recommend this hostel to anyone.

I booked 8 nights in this hostal and there was very rude service and they made me run to teo different rooms and they were already occupied. Then I asked them could they inform Hotels.com that Sthey are not able to give a room but they said I have to do it. Hotels.com didn’t give money nor I had place to sleep. Awful service and very big riski soendibg your money and notting getting a place to sleep.

We had a room with two beds and a private bath.
The hostels was very noisy. We can hear the orange juice machine from the breakfast room which was two floors away and the elevator doors. Our french neighbors (four bed room) were very loud. The breakfast was very simple. Some of the receptionists were more interested in finishing their private conversation than taking care of customers.
The hostel is in a very central location, the Puerta del Sol is only 10 minutes by foot away. There are serveral metro stations in near distance. And there are many restaurants in the area.
We have paid 5 EUR deposit for the room key which wasn't refunded at checkout.

Quality aligned with the price. No comfort, no privacy, lack of service.

This was a decent place. The breakfast was lacking but predictable. The service was awful and the cleaning was haphazard at best. The air conditioning worked great but the room didn't have a tv or any other amenities. Good for a night stay but no longer.

Perfect location in the centre of the city a minutes walk away from the main shopping district. Rooms are a bit small for the amount of people in then but they have good lockers so there is no issue with security. The breakfast is advertised as Continental but consists only of poor quality cereal and toast with a drink. Overall, I would recommend it only to solo travellers staying no longer than two or three nights.
2.5
Good experience overall. Beds make squeaky noises and because there are so many bunk beds in the room, is very difficult to keep the windows open and get fresh air.
2.0
The hostel was very standard and included clean sheets, a fine room, and well-functioning wifi. There were no towels so be sure to bring your own and the lockers did not come with locks. Additionally, there is no luggage storage. The only big problem I had is that the key card they gave me had to be reset two times during my three-night stay. Not a huge problem but definitely annoying.

The WiFi didn’t work, they wanted to charge me a rediculous amount for the second night that I didn’t reserve. I reccomend safestay hostel much more than this one. Only a few blocks away from this one.

Staff not helpful at all, no service. they keep chat and joking with other staff, ignored of your waiting.

You get what you pay for. Its not awful. Its clean, there are private bathrooms and theres a light breakfast included. That being said, the beds arent super comfy and the building is a bit dated. However, its a good price for staying the night or visiting for a few days. If youre on a budget, it works fine. If you can afford a bit more, I think there are better options in Madrid. Would I stay here again? Potentially. If I need a cheap place to stay thats clean and has a bed and a shower, I know where to go. *Side note. The first night was SO HOT. The heater was on and if your bed isnt one of the ones by the windows you just have to suffer if they didnt want to open the windows to get some fresh air.
