    Nice hostel right in the center of the city. Not too big, i'd say there is only missing a place to meet the other backpapers. Staff very helpful.

    The hostel was clean, safe, and a 2 minute walk from the metro. The all female dorm was a plus. Staff was nice. If all you need is a bed in Madrid, this is a good choice, but if you're looking to meet people, this hostel isn't very social.

    Clean and nice hostel. Spacious room, not too crowded with beds. Owners are very nice and helpful too, but you have to know some spanish to communicate with them :)

    The staff (spanish old man) is very helpful and wery warm-hearted person. I hugely recommend female 3 beds room for girls. Mucho Madrid is on 7th floor so u will enjoy the view from the high building on the main street.

    Run by a lovely couple with truly personal service. No bunk beds, which is great. No kitchen use though and you have to be immune to street noise, as it's a bit noisy, though it's 8th floor up. Despite this, still the best option in Madrid, which is not exactly rich in quality hostelling.
