    Not much of a kitchen to cook meals.

    Very organized, 24 hr staff, nice common areas… didn’t even discover the basement one until later.

    This is not the fault of the hostel, the other person annoyed me who got the bottom bank. He sprayed himself and the smell was very strong, he coild've done that in the bathroom.

    Staff was friendly and helpful with any questions I had. I liked that the room had shower and I didn't have to go to another shower. I arrived around 1:00 am so everyone was sleeping. I never stayed in a hostel before so I don't have anything to compare to, the bed was very clean.

    A little tight for space in the dormitory.

    Simple accommodation with a great outside area. Perfect location for the airport and the the city.

    First time in a shared room with strangers, a bit difficult for me, but I chose the place knowing that. Not enough public transportation to the airport, taxis were too expensive for a 5 minute ride. Ended up walking at 5 a.m. Not too long a walk, but still, disappointing The price was OK compared to other places, still I don't think it was good enough value for the money The room was clean but very essential.

    Everything was very organized, the place under the bed to store the belongings, the towel and sheets on each bed, the kitchen and the vending machines. The shared space looked nice. The pool looked nice although didnt have time to enjoy it Very good place considering the type of accommodation (not private)

    The lockers under the beds are metal, so they make a lot of noise… no one’s fault… bad design.

    It was clean and comfortable. It was close to the airport, though to get to the airport one needs to take the METRO or a taxi. The facilities were clean and well organized.

    Shared bathroom was not clean specially the shower, there is no air conditioning or windows in the rooms, so its hot!! wifi is not reliable at night.

    Simple bunk beds, relative close to the airport, 10 min walk to Barajas Metro station (only opened from 6am), 20 minute walk to Terminal 1,2,3 and 15 minute drive to Terminal 4, taxi charges 20 euros.

    The downside is that the bedroom is small, so if you arrive late, it can be challenging not to disturb others.

    The place is really good for staying when you arrive late in the city. It is close to the airport and easy to find. I walked there without needing internet, so I recommend it.

    The locations a little sketchy. Kind of some industrial park sort of area that’s rundown. Also, some of the other guests were just kind of gross. Really sick, coughing out and hocking luggies in the room.

    Comfortable beds and only a few per room. The staff was really good too friendly informative. One of them even spoke English, which believe it or not was some difficulty I was having on my whole trip to Spain.

    -The other guests kept coming and going until very late (way after 1 am) so it was very difficult to sleep even with ear plugs on. Maybe the late arriving guests should be reminded about the respect of others, maybe take out the stuff they need outside of the room and use the toilet and bathroom there. Of course it's the hostel but I did not expect it to be this bad. - the toilets and showers inside the rooms are not practical, especially the wink outside of the bathroom. - the shower inside the room was not working. So I tried the one in the corridor but it was only possible to get either boiling hot or freezing water. But the overhead shower was tolerable but not pleasant. - only mixed dorms - the metal beds and lockers are very loud

    The first night was fine and based on this I booked the second night when I was coming back from my travels.

    The shower had only freezing or boiling water I don’t find it convenient to have a sink outside the bathroom, it feels like you would bother people around you, especially the one that has a bed next to it You still need to take taxi or walk 30 min to the airport (kind of dangerous activity, there are roads and no pathways for pedestrians)

    Many restaurants around within walking distance, Clean, 24h reception, you can book a taxi from the hostel which is cheaper in the morning hours (2-6 AM) than uber. This hostel is for airport connection purposes but it was very modern and clean

    The surrounding area is a little bit sketchy, I didn't feel comfortable walking there at night. It's difficult to walk there from the airport.

    The bed was comfy, I slept very well. Staff were helpful. Convenient location for the metro. Very nice shower.

    Very well organized. The hostel's location is very convenient, especially if you're catching an early flight. The staff were welcoming, and the facilities were well-maintained, making for a comfortable stay for a night, but I would not recommend it for a longer stay. Overall, this hostel is ideal for travelers using Madrid Airport who are looking for a budget-friendly option. Highly recommend!
