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

Verified traveller

Disliked: Staff & service
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.

It's a good small/quiet and convenient hostel. Location is really good, metro/train station is just literally out side the hostel. From the station, easy conection to airport. Super store and shops are just around the corner. Royal Palace/gardens are just 10 minutes. Gran via is 15 and temple of debod & plaza de espana is also 10/15 minutes walk. Rooms and Wash rooms were clean. Staff was very helpful. Overall, good hostel with good location.

Good for the price!
Good location and good all round hostel. The pods were a good size with good curtains. Only down side was the rooms are quite hot when the curtains are closed. There is a toilet and shower in the room so you don’t need to keep using the communal ones. The location is great, close to Gran Via and a nice strole to El Retiro.

This property was certainly an experience. I personally found the staff to be nice, however on several other measures the property fell short. For one, the bathrooms were not particularly clean, and at many times I found myself having to search for alternative facilities as a result. Second, for the summer time in Spain, my particular dorm was rather hot and not very well air conditioned. Perhaps worst of all were the other guests that I encountered. Three men in particular traveling together had all gotten sick and days later now I am sick. Another guest snored so loud that I couldn’t sleep. I have given hostels many different chances but this is the last time I will be making that mistake.

Ideal location, friendly staff
Perfect location near major attractions and metro connections. Common areas were very small but always clean and staff very friendly. My only problem with the hostel was that because it’s small and my room was near the common area it could be quite noisy with inconsiderate guests making loud noise in the middle of the night (not the fault of the hostel obviously but just something to bear in mind)

overall stellar PERFECT LOCATION that is near Madrid’s perfect public transit system — one of the other guests meowed like a cat repeatedly during the night which was a little weird but more of a reflection of her than the place. Great accommodations and easy to lock stuff up. Cannot recommend more highly!
