Although the staff were friendly and responsive, there is no sound proofing so we could hear noise from other occupants, during the day and into the night. Saying that the location was excellent and close to a number of great cafes and shops.

The first room was unacceptable, second room was better. Bed was extremely comfortable. Some renovations and maintenance required Location excellent if you prefer to be at heart of Gran Via, all shops restaurants bars 100m away down side street, so quieter than directly on Gran Via. 200m to Gran Via Subway. Little bit pricey for condition of rooms

The room was small but the bed was comfortable. The room was in an old building but was clean. The bathroom was small but clean and the shower had good hot water that did not run out. The old elevator was kind of cool. There was some loud music from a nearby bar one night but it didn't last too long. (bring ear plugs just in case). The spanish verandah opens on a side street from one of the main shopping areas of Madrid which is also part of their Madrid Broadway area.

Simple, affordable hotel, conveniently located.

The single room is very compact (I'd go as far as saying the photos are misleading), with windows facing the building's ventilation shaft. Although the bed is a bit uncomfortable, the room provides all necessary amenities, and the hostel is conveniently located. It offers good value for the cost.
