It's a little bit far away from the center Madrid, but it will be a good place to visit the area of Slamanca.

Very nice and quiet. A bit expensive, but well worth it if you plan to stay for a while to study and want a quieter atmosphere. I'd definitely recommend it!

The attention is very good, the situation (place) is very excellent. The breakfeast is not good for one who stay a long time there, so boring. It needs a variation. Sometimes I would like a yogurt with frut, but no frut ready for yogurt. etc. Make more selected items on the breakfeast!

Easy to get to, quiet neighborhood. Not good for meeting people. Minimal breakfast. No serious problems and I wouldn't mind staying there again. Staff speak only a little English, so be prepared to use Spanish. If you want a quiet place and a reasonably priced single room. it's good.

The owner and her husband even came to pick us up in their car after we got lost and called for directions multiple times! The place was very clean and homey. it definitely doesn't seem like a place you would want to go to if you wanted a party but is great if you want a private and quiet place where you can rest.close

Very clean and cozy, nice patio. Much storage space for clothes and personal belongings. However, no air-condition, only a fan.

It is a very good option for those going to Spain on a budget. However, the location is a bit far from all of the action. If you go out at night, you will need to take a taxi back to the hostel. The staff are very nice though and it's a reasonable price.

A little of the beaten path, but it was okay. Very quiet and peaceful!!! The only thing I did not like was NOT having a working internet. Please get it fixed! It was vital I use it and thought they had one per this website.

The Residencia La Luna was nice, although it was definitely off the beaten path. The staff literally only speaks Spanish, but they are all very nice. The room was clean, and I was on the bottom floor, so we didn't really have to share our bathroom with anyway. Nice if you want a quiet place to...

The hostel is located in a very good place. There is no towel in the room, it is necessary to have it with youself Very poor breakfast The beds in the room are in two levels. Unfriendly owners of the hostel. In general, low quality of the hostal do not correspond to relatively high price.

This residence was a very cozy place to stay. It is a home environment not a typical hostel stay. The residents are quite young. It was very clean and was well maintained. Lovely environment and surroundings. The only not so excellent part of the stay was that the residence is not located...

Expensive for the services. No TV in room and you have to pay extra for towels. You can be more central and get these for the same price or less in the centre

The person who attended to us when we first arrived could not speak English which was rather difficult to communicate. She was friendly and tried her best to help us. This place is more of a student residence.

The hostel was wonderful and, literally, a five minute walk from the Metro station. The ladies who work there were nothing but pleasant, the hostel was immaculately clean, and everything was priced very reasonably...I'm looking forward to staying there again soon!

Feels more like a house or bed and breakfast than a hostel, which in my mind is a plus. The free breakfast was nice and for a small fee you can get a good cooked lunch and/or dinner.
