Los Arcos is a great location right in the Heart of Sol Plaza and Plaza Mayor... Gran Vía is only 7 minutes away. I recommend this place for cleanliness, great staff, and a walking distance to many restaurants and coffee shops.

It was clean, the room was very small but had fans which kept it pleasant for sleeping, the bed was comfortable, the shower was efficient, although also very small. There were two flights of stairs up to the entrance which was ok for us because we were traveling light. It was reasonable for the central location; good restaurants, short walk to the Prado and other museums, but not for large people or people with lots of luggage.

Room was as expected/advertised, turned on room fan and with 5 minutes it never worked again for the rest of our stay. Bed sheets & towels were not changed at all over the duration of our stay. Shower was either incredibly hot or cold no inbetween. But comfortable beds, good location as in the centre of Madrid, lady on desk tried her best to communicate with us as she doesn't speak English. As expected really but nice stay in Madrid.

This Hostal is in the perfect location for the city center. Sol center is a 3 min walk if that, plaza mayor & Mercado San Miguel are also within a 5 minute walk. There’s plenty of shopping, bars, and restaurants around. The hostal host was very very kind, we had a shower with hot water, comfy blankets & it was very clean. The only “bad” thing I would say is that the walls are thin so you do hear people coming & going & can sometimes hear conversation but it was quiet at night and safe. We spent 2 weeks traveling in Spain & began my trip in Madrid at this Hostal & also ended my trip at this Hostal & felt like I got the most of the city because of the location. It’s a good choice!

Ok, if you don't mind the smell of cigars!

Customer Service was great, Magda was friendly and attentive. The building itself is OK but the moment you enter the reception area of the hostal you can smell cigarette smoke. The smell in the rooms can be stronger although there are windows in the room, the smell prevails. I personally had a headache the nights we stayed. My sinuses were congested and my throat was extremely dry.
