Too "petit" for comfort
I wouldn't recommend this place. The sleeping space was uncomfortable to begin with. I had to sleep sideways on my bed because I couldn't fit properly, and I'm not even that tall! Also, a lot of the light bled through the curtains which, when you add all the noise and bad smells, made it kind of unbearable. The room floor, the shower and toilet spaces were also pretty confined; there is barely any space to move in there or to put your belongings. I kid you not, this place made me wish I was sleeping on the streets of Madrid, or on the bench of a nearby park. Please, do yourself a favor and don't sacrifice your comfort for location or convenience, it's just not worth it, especially with so many options nearby.

I loved this location and it is in good condition. Something to improve is the temperature inside the building, too hot for me. But thanks, I will probably come back.

Cada vez que vengo a Madrid, hace 4 años. Me quedo en este Hostal; cualquiera de sus 2 ubicaciones en Madrid. Es un lugar, muy seguro y limpio. Su staff es amigable y siempre listo para ayudar. Quiero resaltar el servicio de Pau, volvi despues de un año, siempre esta atenta a a cada detalle para que todo tu estadía sea excelente. La mejor!!!

Best Hostal
Best hostal in Madrid, great location like 4 min away from Plaza de España and Palacio Real, a lot of supermarkets around it and coffee shops, for the price is one of the best hostels there is and it’s super comfortable, has a kitchen and fridge so you can save your food

Not the worst experience but it was very different from all the hostels i’ve been to before. The rooms were very tiny and cramped with no natural daylight which I wasn’t a big fan of. The floor space of a 12 bed dorm could barely fit an open suitcase. The lockers were a good size but having to lock and unlock them with a key was a bit of an unnecessary hassle. The lights are on a sensor and the light in the room never went out so I barely slept the whole time I was there. Unfortunately the vibe was very unsociable which was a bit sad so it felt more like a pod hotel than a hostel. I wouldn’t recommend if you’re a super social person but it would’ve been nice if i actually got some sleep.

The staff is great, no issues with them. Uvia is awesome and very helpful. However the facilities themselves were BAD. Like terrible. When they say petit, they really mean petit. I've stayed at many hostels and have never experienced such a small space before. There cannot be more than two people standing. You are literally cramped with five other people. It was such a bad experience.
