    Like I said at 35 euro a night you pay for what you get and this was a bargain for the room and size so no moaning here

    Good room for the prize , we stayed in the private room , small room but at 35euro a night was a bargain comes equipped with everything you need. Location was good plenty of bars around you and good nightclub next door.

    The street is very vibrant and can be heard from the rooms. A better isolation is recommended to be able to sleep better at night.

    Staff were friendly and accommodated me directly when I asked to change rooms. Location is very convenient. We went on foot everywhere and did not have to use public transportation or cars.

    Unfortunately, being downtown also implies noise. The area is full of bars and restaurants, and the noise, chatter and music reached the room with no problem.

    Location is great, right in downtown Madrid, and the price for the area is low. It was also possible to book last minute, which helped a lot. The staff were also very helpful and attentive.

    The room is very small. The only small window overlooks the well between the houses.

    I arrived at the hostel at 3 am, so the working reception was convenient. The location is good. For an overnight stay, a very convenient hostel, for a few days - no.

    Walls were little bit dirty. There is no breakfast option, it would be nice to have at least kettle in the room.

    Location of hostal is very good,in the city centre and only 20 minutes walking from Atocha. Size of room was ok.

    Excellent price/stay ratio!

    Bathroom could have a holder specific the 'telephone' (where the water comes out from when you shower), you had to put it against the structure itself which was weird. Side note, and this is mentioned on previous posts as well, rooms are on a 3rd and 4th floor. Highest floor is 65 steps. Then again, not hotel-related but the building.

    Location is best! 2 blocks away from the Plaza del Sol station which is really convenient. Several stores which are convenient as well (bodegas, pharmacies, restaurants) However, and this is not about the hotel, given that area is very popular during the nights there might be noise going into the room. Noise went until 4 AM on saturday night!

    Size of the room is really small, so if you have long legs like me, careful when getting out of bed. There is no elevator in the property, which is hard if you have big suitcases.

    Central location and a lot of options to go shopping, eating and sightseeing around. The room was really small, but OK for one person. Amenities in the bathroom, even though there was no shampoo.
