    Not the best value for money, but great location.

    First of all, it is a very simple room, with a small balcony overlooking Cervantes street. Also, the bathroom was extremely small; there was almost no place to put the shower mat, actually, or even to move in it. Be that as it may, the room is in need of a refurbishment, because the price paid for it, 120€ per night, is only deserved because of the location.

    The best thing about this hostel is its location, in the heart of Las Letras district, right in the centre of Madrid. The staff was friendly and helpful at all times and the room was clean at anytime.

    The furniture is outdated and the room and bathroom are very small.

    The area, barrio de las letras, is a beautiful central area of Madrid, which makes it a great location.

    Small abnd unconvenient elevator, but since it is 2nd floor, it was not that important.

    Very welcoming personnel (Orlando), our room was cleaned after our first night there which I didn't expect from a 2 star hotel. While a bit shabby, the room was clean and wi-fi was very good. Amazing location with a wonderful bakery just around the corner 👌

    The walls are very thin and you can hear everything people say and do in other rooms including when they turn on the water or flush the toilet. If you are a light sleeper it's hard to get a good night's sleep.

    Comfortable bed! Great location for walking to the art museums and the Plaza Mayor area. Lots of food and bar options too.

    They give you two single beds which wasn’t ideal if you a couple visiting.

    Located right in the centre of the city. The square is a km walk from here & so are all other sight seeing options. The room size is good for two people. They give you water filter so that you don’t have to buy water from outside which is a bit of a challenge in Spain. Also the guy at the reception is very kind and will help you when you need.

    The only one should be taken into account is the very small space in bath. In case of inconvenience, one can ask for room with shower (could be more comfortable) and if you are with heavy luggage and big suitcases, please take into account that this is an old beautiful building with old style small elevator.

    In whole I loved the stay there, starting from staff kind welcome and helpfulness. The location is perfect, easy to find and easy to access all the attractions, shopping streets and centers are on a walking distance. Perfect wi-fi, easy check-in and possibility to leave luggage after check out. Clean wide room with all must facilities. Daily cleaning of the room (Even without asking) which is much appreciated.

    2 beds pushed together with gap so remote, etc. could fall between them. noise from other rooms using water, etc.. couldn't send message to hotel e-mail address. ancient tiny elevator. grate immediately inside front door makes it easy for suitcase wheels to get caught. i'm absolutely positive i accidentally left a clothes hanger behind but they said they didn't find it in the room. dark lobby. i had trouble understanding proprietor's fast Spanish speaking.

    enough space to hang our clothes, shower hot enough

    We had problems getting in because we were unable to raise someone with the buzzer. Once someone actually answered, everything was fine, although the person who answered spoke limited English and it was a good thing I had printed the reservation receipt because he was able to find our prepaid reservation. The bathroom set up in our room was a little strange as the door had to be fully open in order to turn on the light because the switch was behind the sliding door. It appeared there must have been a leak at some point because the flooring in front of the bathroom had been pretty badly damaged, more of an aesthetic problem than anything else.

    The location was probably the best thing about this hostal. The best museums (e.g., Prado) were close by; lots of restaurants and other eateries were in the same or nearby blocks. Public transport also was nearby.

    You can not fault the location and Fabio's friendliness, but the room itself was very tired, with lifting laminate floor, poor electrical sockets very loose from the wall and a bathroom which should be replaced, it was quite dirty. Can be quite noisy even with the windows closed.

    Fabulous location, within a few minutes walk of all the major galleries, Parque Retiro and Atocha Station. Great selection of bars and restaurants within walking distance. Sol metro 5 minutes walk with great connections. Great airconditioning!

    The bed wasn’t super comfortable, but it was definitely adequate.

    Great location: central and cool, but also very calm and quiet at night (which was especially good since the walls were rather thin). The location was a major plus. Comfortable and pretty spacious room for the price. Great AC too.
