Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel has horrible WiFi!! There were two routers to connect to and neither had internet. I stayed there two nights and couldn’t find restaurants, directions, no email, not even texts would go through! I asked the front desk about it and they just said “everybody is using it at once which is why it’s slow “. That’s not true because I tried around the clock and had to go to bars and restaurants for wifi

The hotel is very dirty. The shower was broken when I arrived and I had to change rooms because once the shower was fixed and I could take a shower, doing so caused the water to leak into the room. The surrounding area is quite dangerous, which is not the fault of the hotel of course, but something to consider. The staff are nice and friendly and the location is close to Atocha Train Station and Puerta del Sol.

The worst place I’ve ever spent a night. Expedia should remove them as a hotel option. One night there was a mouse in the lobby, our room flooded with water coming out of the wall and there were worms on the floor the next morning. Shady characters hanging out in the shop next door every night that we had to pass through to get to the front door. There are better options just a few blocks up the road.

Cockroach and bugs

Hi. For the price we paid (120 euro/night) everything was under expectation. On top of that cockroach and other bugs in the room.

We stayed at Motel Lavapiés for two nights. Here’s my review: Location: The location is convenient, close to many shops and restaurants, and within a 15-20 minute walk to more vibrant areas. Facilities: We booked two rooms with the expectation of a shared bathroom between them, but it turned out the bathroom was shared by all the rooms on the floor. If you’re particular about hygiene, this might not be the best option. The rooms themselves are average, and there is a shared fridge and microwave available for all guests. Noise: The most frustrating part of the stay was the noise. Both nights were filled with loud noises and shouting, which made it difficult to sleep.

It was very low on conveniences and very rudimentary. 1 thin towel, cold room, hair dryer with little to no heat, BUT the price was minimal and the staff was kind and gave me a space heater, the price was right, in a neighborhood with everything one needs. No one would confuse it with a five star hotel but worth the cost and I would not hesitate to recommend it.

Give this one a pass.

The hotel would be better described as a hostel. The room was impossibly small (I knew that going in) but they had an enormous bed in it that made it very hard to move around. There was an air conditioner but no remote to control it, so we slept with the windows open and endured non-stop street noise until 2 a.m. Then, our neighbors who had booked several rooms started up in the hallways, so we endured another 2 hours of noise. There were no sheets on the bed, only a blanket we had to look for. The shower head wouldn't stay in place, so we sprayed water all over the bathroom trying to shower. It was cheap and near the train station but other than that, nothing to redeem it.

Great location walkable to many restaurants/convenience stores/attractions. Great value for money. Hospitable host and very responsive. We mentioned that the room was cold and even though we did not pay for the $10 for the heater control, the host gave us a portable heater to use for our stay there. Host was responsive in helping us make payment because there was an issue with our initial payment. Room unfortunately smelled of cigarettes.
