Excellent location, two blocks from Gran Vía. Good food on this small street, not expensive. Important to us: there is an elevator! Building is safe, closed for the night. Lots of small, useful stores right next to the building, including grocery stores. Very convenient. Uber from there to the Golden Triangle museums is just about 10 Euros. Staff very nice. They even gave me a card to use in the subway, I just needed to add some money to it. Gave it back for future costumers.

Great Location with Safety Concerns

The hotel is located near Gran Via and both metro & commuter train stations, so there were a lot of great dining and shopping options available. The private suite was small with a small refrigerator, but no microwave. Also, the bathroom sink was way too small and inconvenient to use. The owner and staff were very friendly. There's one incident worth mentioning. At the check-in, the owner told us to just leave our keys on the reception window if we're checking out before 0900, which we did. However, when we went down stairs, the main door of building was locked from the inside and you needed the key to open that door to get out of the building. This could've been a dangerous situation if there was a fire in the building and people are trapped because they couldn't get out of the building.

The property was in a good location within Madrid, but the street was somewhat rundown. The hotel was the same. It just did not meet my standards. It was old and tattered. We ended up departing after one night and took another hotel. You know that you in the wrong place when the hotel supplies ear plugs on the night stand.

Good budget friendly place

If you want a place to sleep and are planing on being on the city a lot and not in the room then this is the place. It is small but works if you are on a budget. The only complain is the the street is loud up until 3-4am so it is a little difficult to get rest. They provide earplugs to help and of course this is not their fault, it’s just the neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay and it helped us keep the budget available for other activities.

Fui de viaje con mi pareja, volamos por horas y nos dejaron en la calle luego de haber reservado con meses de anticipación. Nos cancelaron la habitación que habíamos reservado por cuatro días e indicaron que se la dieron a otra persona, alegando que si no le avisamos la hora de llegada ellos tenían el derecho a cancelar la reserva. Eso no le decía en ningún lado. Ya la habitación estaba paga en su totalidad, también perdimos el dinero. No recomiendo hagan reserva en este lugar. No caigan en este truco, además el lugar no es en la mejor zona. Y el trato de la Sra. que estaba en la Oficina y nos recibió no era el Mejor, ni le importó dejarnos en la calle, ya que en esos días había partido de fútbol y todos los hoteles estaban llenos.

Great location for a “no frills” stay

Really centrally located with Gran Via just steps away. The room was a great size and was also very clean with a hair dryer, towels, ear plugs, and water provided. Air conditioner in the room was excellent. Our room had a mini fridge, which was nice. The bathroom in our room was tiny and difficult for even one person to move around in. It was also VERY dark in the bathroom and we had to use the flashlight on our cell phone to add lighting. While all the towels provided were super clean, they definitely felt like they had been washed one too many times and were very rough. We had a room that overlooked Calle Hortaleza and it gets very loud at night. We slept with ear plugs, which helped, but the noise goes all through the night. The wifi in our room was very spotty, too. There are 5 different wifi networks to choose from for the hostal but our room got only 2 of them and even those 2 would go in and out. It’s a perfect “no frills” place if all you’re looking to do is shower & sleep in your room. Despite some room for improvement, I would definitely recommend staying here due to the amazing location & cleanliness of everything.
