    The hostel was amazing! The room was super spacious and the location was unbeatable. There were all kinds of couples there, and several people just hanging out. We had an absolute blast. The man running the place knew a lot about what was happening in the city and when. Great resource.

    Very friendly staff, excellent location- couldn't be better. All double rooms look different. Some are big and spacy, some look grromy, but all are clean and the bed matresses are comfortable.The breakfast is basic, but good enough. The coffeee should be warmed in microwave.

    In my view, this is a good hotel. The staff is kind and he can speak English. Since I arrive to the hotel so late (around 24h00), but there is a staff who wait for us. That's very good for an one star hostel. The location is very close to metro and easy to find. There is an... more

    This hostel was right in the heart of everything, no need for the metro to most places you'd walk it just as quick!

    No fun at all (for gay or not gay peoples). The staff is not friendly. In the other hand, you are IN the place in Madrid to go out... To conclude, I will not recommand this place to stay in Madrid

    Loved the great freedom. Sharing bathroom was no problem since there were not too many people to share with. After I got my keys there was no control as to what you did in the room or who you could bring to visit. Location was super.

    The hostel was better than expected. We got a very large room with very large comfortable beds and a tv with cable. The bathrooms were cleaned every day so sharing bathrooms with other rooms wasn't too bad. The only issue I had was with the breakfast and the fact that it never changed day to day.... more

    Nice, accommodating staff. Paid for a double, private. they said four of us could stay in there, if we needed. You pay for the room, not number of people. Free breakfast was a nice touch. Small bathroom though. Good location for Madrid. right in center of city.

    They are certainly straight-friendly, too. (I'm a straight guy, but I chose to stay there because of the location and good reviews.) It's a great place to stay if you want find out where to party with the Spaniards instead of just fellow tourists.
