Location, location, location

Location, location, location. Hostal Alaska could not have been better located for exploring Madrid with Puerta del Sol just a half block down the street. The front desk is manned 24 hours a day, and the staff is very attentive. The area is extremely safe and provides immediate access to restaurants, shopping, city sights, on-off bus sightseeing and bus or metro transportation. The room was updated and comfortable. Just be sure to have specific directions to the door of the place since it is not obvious and is just one door onto the street. This is not a criticism, but rather advice to help you find the place easily. We were 100% satisfied with our room and bathroom. We look for comfortable clean accommodations to serve as a base for exploring the places we travel to. Hostal Alaska fit the bill perfectly.

Muy cercano y céntrico.

Muy cercano a todos los lugares. Estación de metro muy cerca. Habitación bien. La limpieza algo escasa. Te cambian las toallas diariamente. Pero en general está bastante bien.

Un lugar para NO ir

El lugar está bastante bien ubicado pero el personal del hostal es desatento, antipático, mal predispuesto y poco colaborativo. Atención al público todos se la llevaron a marzo.

Boa

O quarto é bem simples, um pouco antigo, mas confortável. A localização é boa, fica bem no centro, perto de muitos pontos turísticos. Apesar do barulho que fica o tempo todo do lado de fora, lá do hotel não conseguíamos ouvir.

A little difficult to find at first. The entrance to the hostel and the building looked bad but the room was ok. Very near to Sol Station, so easy access to metro and renfe. A lot of shops and eating outlets. Very central. Bathroom was very tiny. We booked the family room, so we had a microwave in the room which was very useful for us.

Centralt og rent, men.....

Det var billigt, centralt og rent og som sådan ok til prisen, der virkelig var lav. Lidt besynderligt, at der var duft i air-con systemet. Vi kunne dog lukke det, så måtte vi leve med en lidt indelukket lugt. Sengene var forholdsvis små og lidt hårde, men ok. På det ene værelse skinnede lyset på gangen ind ad et vindue, så hver gang lyset tændte på gangen, blev der lyst på værelset. Der stod på bestillingen, at vi skulle kontakte hotellet senest 24 timer, før vi ankom for at aftale nærmere om indtjekning. De svarer ikke på mails eller via deres kontaktformular på hjemmesiden. På telefonen bliver man mødt af en dame, som insisterer på kun at tale spansk. Hun forstår INTET engelsk. Vi måtte have hjælp fra Hotels.com, der dog også havde problemer med at kunne kommunikere med dem på hotellet. Min spanske familie kontaktede hotellet og havde svært ved at forstå det elendige spansk, der blev talt. Damen, der svarer på telefonen er desuden vældig ubehøvlet, oplevede både jeg og min familie - hun smider røret på, når hun opgiver at forstå, hvad man siger.

The location is terrific. The room is nice and clean. However, they don't provide a kettle - no means to have meals in the room. The air conditioner was sufficient for the night. However, when I returned at 9 AM from my morning walk, the room was heating up as if there was some source of heat inside the room. So, the room was fine for one night but would not be OK for spending some time during the day

Nice hotel in the center of madrid

The hotel was good, it had all we needed and it was perfect for our kind of trip. We stayed there 5 days and we can't complain about anything. The hotel staff was very kind (but doesn't speak English but we made it also with our school Spanish, so it wasn't a big problem. The hotel is very central and only some steps away from the Puerta del so. All in all I would recommend the hotel to all people.
