  The hotel has a perfect location, just 2 minutes walk from Gran Via. The street where it`s situated is safe, there are several restaurants with local cuisine and some coffee shops and supermarkets as well. This is just the place to stay at night, there are no facilities. The rooms are very simple, with old furniture, but very clean. The owners of the hotel, old couple, they don`t speak english, but their son, Antonio, is working there as well. He is a perfect helpful guy with perfect english!!! He explained me everything regarding the city, where to catch the city tour bus, where to eat and many other things!!! Then, he provided me with full information how to go from Madrid to Lisbon, then he helped me to buy through internet the air ticket Madrid-Lisbon, and even he managed to print it for me (there is no printer at the hotel!), I didn`t even ask him about that. He is doing his best for the guests, he is very polite and positive! So, if you book this hotel, you can be sure that you are in the city center, in the clean safe place with english speaking service.

  Actually I cannot say anything bad because for this price you cannot demand many things. For this price the service provided was good.

  The location of the Hostal was perfect fro seeing Madrid. The rooms were small but the beds very comfortable and the place was clean and the bathrooms were very compact but of a very good standard considering the very low price tag.

  The one thing we felt was slightly negative was that the familly running it were heavily involved in our stay and rather nosey. Although it wasn't a massive problem, some more customer professionalism could be good, altho I must say for the price I think it can be overlookedw

  Family run hostel. Great location - near by Gran Via. Rooms simple furnished but clean. Not too noisy. Safe neighbourhood. Good value for the money. 3rd floor - lift in the building.

  Lack of air conditioning - A bit hot in summer :)

  The room was a big enough, the stuff (especially an amazing grandmother) was very helpful and polite. The young man speak English and he advised me not to take a taxi to Barajas at 4 A.m, but get a transfer from Plaza Cibeles (it was a really closer to hostal and costs only 2 euro).

  The spanish speaking older man. He is very kind. Clean good location and you can lock your own room.

  I didn't meet the english speaking Anthony. I have no idea he excist. Do not expect a hotel. It's a room in the owners place. If you are ok with that then it's great and very good location.

  Very hospitable and helpfull staff. Very close to where everything happens. Street is buzzing even at night, but that is what comes with a city as Madrid.

  Madrid center is only a 5 minutes walk. Hotel has a very good location to city sights. You do not need to use tickets to underground. Beds were made for each and every day. Stuff was very friendly and helpful. ( They speak only Spanish but it was not a problem - to someone it is a disadvantage!) Airport is 20-25 minutes by metro. Room was clean. Bedroom for 4 has an itsown bathroom. For a 3-4 day long stay it is ok but for longer period you had better choose another accomodation. There was a free of charge aircondition.

  Room was in an old fashioned house, and a little bit dark. Window looked onto a blind yard and you could smell what your neighbours cooked. I would not recomment for families with children but for backpackers it is very good.

  Very friendly and helpful, ideal location in the city centre, easy to get to from the airport (Metro). Close to all the Museums etc. Room was clean. Some outside noise in the evenings but did not disturb our sleep. Your stay in Madrid will be very good if you take the time and trouble to learn a few words and phrases in Spanish - give it a try!

  The hotel has a very good location close to Gran Via Metro station. Everything is kept clean. It does not provide breakfast, but there are plenty of cafes in the area which offer breakfast for around 2 Euros. You are given your own keys, so you can come and go as you please. All in all, very good value.

  Central location

  I had to leave early because of incessant noise - I guess it depends on the room because the hostal is in fact just a huge apartment (piso) in a residential building rented out by room and each room is different. In my case, the entry door would slam like small cannon up until about 2am and the bell would ring up until about the same time. Also, there was a remodeling/construction work going on the in the next apartment, so at 8am latest they would start drilling and hammering. After two nights I moved out. The person who runs the hostal makes a genuine effort to keep tabs on things but she speaks no English at all and we simply could not communicate... In all the fairness, she refunded me for the unused nights though.

  Very clean including shared bathroom. Recently installed air conditioning was a welcome surprise and bonus. Son speaks English. No problem to leave luggage at check-out to pick up later. Excellent location. No problem with lift. No problems with noise.

  Towels were a bit old and musty smelling. Lack of natural light but this did not cause any problems for a 2 night stay.
