Easy check-in even at 1AM, although staff does not speak English (typical of Madrid), we managed to get the process through with my little Spanish. The room, although more than large enough, had very thin or uninsulated walls. We can hear conversations of people in the room next to us and was awaken in the middle of the night by the rhythmic knocking of their headboard against the wall. Yeah, we knew what was happening in the next room in the late night hours! |

Staff very friendly, and helpful with information about trains, etc. Breakfast very acceptable, but evening drinks involved visiting somewhere else nearby - lots of choice for that. Safe in room would hold a laptop, easy to use. Location splendid - 5 minutes from Sol, lots of places to eat and drink nearby. I have slept in more comfortable beds. |

The room was good size for 1 person. It was well located and many nearby restaurants from which to select. I especially was pleased to see a real jazz club just 2 buildings away. Staff was very accommodating and helpful. bathroom too small and cramped. |

A good, basic hotel in a great location. Our room was adequate in terms of size and comfort. Soundproofing against external noise was excellent. The breakfast selection was fairly good. The staff were all friendly except the guy who seemed to be the manager and was prowling around the breakfast room. Internet available for a small fee. Good value overall. Soundproofing was not so good against neighbouring rooms. |

The central location of the hostel was perfect for me, the Plaza Santa Ana what I loved so much was only only 1 minute walk, and excellennent music clubs, pubs and nice terraces surrended the place. I liked that our room wasn't small, but bright, tidy and well-furnished with balcony. I get the roomk what I booked (2 seperate bed, with a balcon, higer floor) The continental breakfast was the same all day, and a littler bit poor, but not bad! |

This is the perfect spot for a Madrid weekend break. It is incredibly central, with the Plaza S Ana, and all its nightlife, adjacent. Puerto del Sol is a five minute walk away. The hotel itself is spotless and there is aircon. We stayed in a triple room, which was spacious and easily accommodated us. This hotel is excellent value and I would definitely stay there again. |

The staff was excellent--very helpful and customer service-oriented! The walls are too thin; I could hear people going up and down the hallway, slamming their doors, and even the constant snoring of the guest next door. |

Was in the best possible location for exploring the whole city and almost all the staff were very friendly and helpful The night staff were considerably rude on one occasion and kept us waiting 15 minutes for a glass whilst he started and completed his computer work. He then took all of 30 seconds to retrieve the glass from the dining room |

The hostal is very central and all the important parts of the city centre are within walking distance. It is clean and comfortable and the inner rooms very quiet. Although basic, the rooms are perfectly adequate, and the staff are delightful. I will certainly stay here again. Not really, but I would have happily paid a little more for wi-fi connection. |

The best part of my stay was the unfailing friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. They even spontaneously contacted me to say that they had inadvertently overcharged me by 16 Euros and wanted to reimburse me. My single room was very tiny, the shower was too small and the door (the room was next to the elevator) provided no barrier to even the slightest sound in the hallway. However, noise was only a problem on Saturday night, with people returning to the hotel very late and being loud. The other nights were fine. |

the location was really cental and useful to visit the city, for me was the best site to stay in madrid !! all the rooms have the window on the interanl biuldong, not on the street, so it was any noise form 'movida' :-) maybe by the kind of price (very cheap with booking), the room was really small, and the bed too !!! we are a couple, and it was quite difficult to sleep not in a double but in a single half bed! luckIly, the 2nd night were arriving a group of joung people andh teh staff was so courtesy to change our room, and the second room was a REAL room! |

I booked this hostal/ hotel as it was the cheapest I could find for one night. It was excellent for the price I paid. I will definitely stay there again the next time I go to Madrid and the connected restaurant next door was fantastic. |

I had such a nice stay at the hotel Persal (from 16th to 18th January 2009) with some friends of mine and we've all been really satisfied: gorgeous location, spotless, comfortable and nice rooms. The breakfast was definitely acceptable (filling anyway) and included in the rate: 180€ per a double-bed room per two nights, in the heart of Madrid! Cool!! Nothing: I would really like to go back there. |

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The location is great for walking around Madrid. The balcony had a great view of the plaza. Heating was radiator, warm and toasty. The "double" beds were small and hard. The "breakfast" was minimal and not recommended. |
