The Hotel was in a brilliant location and great value for money. Although a little dated, it had great charm including a delightful covered balcony. The staff were charming and helpful and check-in/check-out easy and convenient. Will happily return if in Madrid again.

It was a great find. It is close to everything in Centro Madrid. The room was very small but has a lot of character. It was clean, quaint and charming. The balcóny is adorable. I was very happy with it. Practical, cute and great price. There is also a place near where you can store your bags. I would definitely go back.

They were very accommodating. The place was spotlessly clean and just down the stairs from Plaza Major.

The location was excellent and right in the middle of everything. Literally steps away from Plaza Mayor. Staff was friendly and the communication barrier wasn’t too hard to get past. Would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is in a busy district which can be loud sometimes but not too much as long as you close the windows. It is a good walking distance to most attractions which is why i chose this place.

The hostal is conveniently situated, being very close to the Plaza Mayor and numerous good bars and restaurants. Although it is on the second floor, there is a lift. We found the staff welcoming, friendly and helpful; communication was wholly in Spanish. The room and facilities were spotlessly clean, with good air conditioning. The only disadvantage was occasional loud noise from a nearby room.

Clean but some rooms are tight spaces, especially in the bathroom.

2/10

Upon arrival, a clerk said that part of payment was not done despite of inputting my credit card info. at the reservation several weeks ago. He, the clerk, said later that my payment was fine without saying any apology. Poor management on the payment transaction. Plus a shower unit is too small for 6 foot tall guy. Never visit again.

The room and bath were very nice, albeit compact. It could be noisy, however. There is noise from the street. The walls seem thin so cross your fingers for quiet neighbors.

This hostel is surrounded with lot of restaurants and bars and is quite buzzing. And many tour busses gather people near this place so location wise it worked out well. But otherwise, the hotel or hostel was a bit rundown. I had no issues with smaller rooms. But the maintenance especially like bathrooms were so dated. The first room given to us was quite smelly (apparently a restaurant kitchen is downstairs as other reviews have noted). So we changed to another room,where the bathroom/toilet broke a few times. The bathroom didn't even have a bath roll holder.

Loved the location since it as very central to everything! Anna was always kind and helpful in so many ways...really appreciated her kindness. It was rather noisy at night with outside deliveries which is not fault of the hotel. The mattress was rather hard so it was difficult to get a good nights sleep. Very clean and charming room...not too small at all. All in all would still stay here again

Room was hot, no a/c working. Ceiling fan did the trick. Quiet close to everything food shopping etc. Location second to none. Hard to locate hotel is located on 2nd floor only.

We stayed here on a Wednesday. For the price, our room was nice, with a private bathroom, 2 beds, a large window, free wifi, and a tv. Our room was quiet, clean, and the towels were large and fluffy. The room was small but it had a closet and in-room safe (which we did not use). The hotel is on the 2nd floor of the building and you need to press a button marked "la Macarena" next to the outside door to be allowed into the building. You then go up the elevator to the 2nd floor. Everything you need is nearby and walkable. The front desk is open 24 hours. We enjoyed our stay.
