    The staff did not really seem welcome and not friendly,not helpful, not feeling comfortable to talk as they look miserable.

    Right by the centre, near night life with restaurants and bars, clubs. Toilet and shower are in the room with a comfortable bed.

    The reception staff doesn't even say hello when they see you pass by. Sure, they'll be able to answer if you ask them anything, but they weren’t hospitable at all. At check-in, they didn't give me any information about the services they had or recomandation and I was staying there for 5 days. They just gave me the key and told me it was on x floor…

    The room was comfortable and clean, with a spacious bed. I had expressed a preference for a lower bed, and it was granted, so I really appreciated that! Excellent location, 5 minutes from Puerta del Sol.

    It was clean but it could be a little but cleaner ? Sometimes it took too long for the cleaning staff to clean it but over all it was still good !

    Amazing location, close to pretty much everything ! The room was nice and the beds are private which i really liked !

    Great location and great option for my group of 8

    • Group
    • Quadruple Room with Private Bathroom
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Our room had a connecting door to another room next door, and the people in the room were loud and giggly until the wee hours of the morning both nights. I can't blame the hostel for rude guests, but better sound proofing would have helped (hard with a connecting door, however).

    The location is excellent and the staff very helpful. I was travelling with a group of eight (six students and two adults), and it was easy to access all of the historic center of Madrid on foot. We had four quads which met our needs quite well. The price was better than many of the other options in the neighborhood. I've travelled with groups large and small in Madrid, and I often book hostels in this area. Mola Madrid was particularly well suited for this group, as well, because I was able to reserve three quads rather than reserving larger rooms or placing my high school students in rooms with strangers. Breakfast was fine and the staff very helpful.

    The biggest letdown was the lack of storage lockers within the rooms themselves. Whilst each bed does have a designated drawer, it doesn’t lock. The only lockable storage locker within the building are located on Floor -2 and require payment - so you would need to keep going backwards and forwards for bag access or keep it in your drawer without a lock.

    Great four unit accommodation and comfy bed with a privacy curtain. Location is fine for Metro access. Staff very pleasant and accessible. Decent communal area.

    The bathroom was not cleaned properly during my stay The hair dryer is like a joke, it does not get warm and dry enough but still turns itself down every two minutes There were not enough hangers in the room for towels etc. You need to have a big padlock for the lockers under the beds There is noise from the street but it is normal in such a central location

    central location, walkable to many touristic places in Madrid. hostel is a big building on the corner of a street, very easy to find bunk beds are covered on sides and have curtains Bed sheets were clean the bathroom in the room and separated with a door, there are enough racks under the basins Breakfast was good for money

    The air conditioning in the room was too cold for comfort and could not be adjusted. I had to wear extra clothes at night, and it seemed like a waste of energy.

    Great setup with the bathroom as a pre-room and comfortable bed booth.

    I was assigned the higher bunk bed. It was sooo high, the steps to get up were narrow, very widely spaced and creaking. It was scary to go up my bed. The whole night I was scared I will fall over. I did not even dare to go down to take a pee in the middle of the night. Pillow was really thin. It gave me stiff neck the following morning.

    Location.
