This was a very cute hostal with loads of character. It's right in the centre of the city with only a few hundred metres to either of two metro stations. Well kept and clean, the staff were helpful, but they are only double or twin rooms, no common areas so not really a great place to meet others...

My stay was excellent and I had to cut it short only due to an injury. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Staff was most helpful.

Books at the hallways are a good idea, as customers can just read them during their stay. Suggestion: put exhaust fans in the private bathrooms. Private rooms could have refrigerators.

The building had so much character, and it was always refreshing and comforting to return to our beautifully clean room after exploring Madrid. The staff were always friendly and helpful. Using the stairs up to the 7th floor was a great way to start working off all the jamon and cerveza (but the sweet little elevator was fun too)! Thanks.close

This is a great place to stay. Even though it is on Gran Via it is still very quiet at night when you need to sleep. The Staff is very friendly. They don't speak too much english but there is one lady who does. Very cool little Hostal.

good staff - the young guy was really helpful + they found a room for us (we had to take 2 more nights) though the hostel was full. hostel is perfectly located - it's on Gran Via (the main street). rooms were clean but a little dark + no kitchen/breakfast. well, but in the main everything was ok....

I was a bit disappointed with the hostal. It was dark and a bit dreary and reeked of cigarette smoke. I will not stay there again.

It's like an apartment of someone who lives in the center. Great location, but you can't make any noise after 11pm. Otherwise it's not bad.

I was a bit concerned to receive an email demanding my credit card number and expiry date after making the booking and deposit. After refusing to hand it over, the owner eventually accepted my deposit as a booking but I´m not happy about it. Apart from that, the place was absolutely fine and in...

The biggest strength of the place is the staff ( the family on charge). They were very nice and helpful. They gave us info of hotels in other cities, they kept our luggage while we went to other countries, etc.

We really liked the hostal. Although it's located on the Gran Via we didn't hear the noisy traffic because the hostal is on the 7th floor. Also very clean and friendly staff. We would recommend this hostal to friends.

We found the hostel surprisingly nice, very friendly staff and great location, cozy room with very comfortable bed, our only regret is not being able to stay there longer. We´ll surely be back.
