Top location for everything. There only problem is the separate toilet, struggle to get in and out. Not sure why the owner didn’t make the toilet and bathroom together, that would have really helped or made the bathroom bigger.

I had a great stay at this beautiful hotel. The room I’ve stayed at had two balconies with lovely city view, quiet once you close the balcony doors, spacious, extremely clean and safe. This hotel is nearby many of the attractions, point of interest, friendly staff and the airport journey is much easier once you understand the metro lines. I highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent place to stay. Very pleasant stay, with an amazing comfortable bed, a private bathroom and room with balcony. Amazing room view to Plaza Santa Cruz. Staff was very nice and very kind. You have many options to eat. Just a few steps from Plaza Mayor. Convenient stores nearby and not overcrowded. Rooms are clean and every day they provided basics.

Perfect location and very comfortable

Fantastic location, near a lot of action. A little noise from outside during the night but not too bad. Walkable to many attractions and restaurants and also the train. Not so much a hostel as we know it, but more of a guesthouse. Loved it!
