Perfect place to stay
The cutest place to stay- right in the heart of the city next to lots of shopping and restaurants and metro stops. Clean, easily accessible, nice hosts. Me and my 2 daughters got a room with 3 single beds and a bathroom. The price was great and we loved everything about it.

Excellent location
Hostal is centrally located within walking distance to the main attractions in Madrid. They keep the place fairly tidy. Rooms are small but it is all you need since you will be mainly out and about enjoying what Madrid has to offer. Room pluses are the excellent shower water pressure and comfortable mattresses. Main cons are the noise from downstairs bars and cafeterias but the room windows cancel out most of it though. Overall, i will definitely recommend this place if you want to stay in the middle of the action in Madrid.

Friendly, helpful staff. Hostal located right in the centre of Madrid, but I had a room in the back, so couldn't hear any noise from outside. All in all, for budget accommodation this hostal is very satisfactory.

Honest & Mixed Review
PROS: Great, awesome location! Gentleman working the desk in the morning was very friendly and helpful. Clean room. CONS: The woman at the desk at check-in was HORRIBLE. Very rude, unpleasant, unfriendly, NO smile ever. She started my first Madrid experience on a negative note. She made me regret booking at this location. Room was on the small side, especially the bathroom, but for one night was perfect. (The hotel street is not accessible by vehicle. You will have to hand carry luggage down that street. No big deal if it's not raining, whch it was.)
