Muy limpio, bien ubicado, habitaciones remodeladas/ recicladas a pesar de ser un edifico viejo. Staff muy amable. En el baño no hay secador pero te lo prestan, cambio de toallas cuando lo solicitas y limpieza diaria Un poco ruidoso ya que abajo hay mucho movimiento. Sin duda muy opción para una corta estadía en Madrid!

Great location, but bare bones

The hotel was easy to find and I’m glad there was an elevator, but our room was on the fourth floor so we did have to walk up around twenty steps. The room was small but enough room to lay out our suitcases which was nice. I wish there was a few more hooks in the washroom or in the room in general to hang more items. I didn’t like having to go ask the reception to use the hairdryer every time but I am glad they provided one. They even helped us to boil water so I would say the counter staff was very nice and pleasant. Their doorbell is very annoying and rings at all hours of the day when new people check in or when patrons forget their keys maybe. I would prefer if the doorbell wasn’t so loud to wake me up! The street noise is very very loud since they are below a bar that has live musicians all night but when you close all the shutters including the wooden shutters it is less noisy, but you will get no natural light this way. However I think with the location this is unavoided. People often forget to close the lobby door behind them but I think it’s crucial for safety to close this! Maybe the signage on the ground floor could be more obvious.

Un 2 étoiles sans plus

Hôtel bien situé, chambre petite mais lit confortable et grande douche. Malheureusement mal insonorisé. Notre chambre donnait sur la rue, beaucoup de bruit jusqu’aux petites heures du matin. Et la famille voisine de notre chambre était aussi très bruyante (cris et pleurs).

Small rooms with a lot of value

Great location! Right off Sol Plaza, so I could see the Christmas tree going up from the balcony. The room was small, but clean and was bright. Bathroom sink was tiny and hard to use. Toilet was fine for me, but I could see someone else bigger having issues. Shower was good. At night you can hear partiers until 5am, which is probably true for anywhere with bars nearby, but it's not too loud. I wore ear plugs to drown out any remaining noise with the windows shut. Overall, great value for the price and views.

The room was extremely small, did not look like the pictures shown. The parking the hotel had a deal with was closed, and there was no help with a partial reimbursement. Our air conditioner was linking on our bed, they did fix this. The staff were nice, but the room was horrible. It was close to everything, but it was so loud at night we couldn’t sleep.

This is clearly a two-star "hostal," so understand what you are getting before staying there. It is one floor of rental rooms (3rd floor) in a very old building with two other different hostals on the 2nd and 4th floors and a common first floor entrance to all three. The room was very small and very low-end, the paint on the window frames was peeling, and the white towels were old and rough and brownish as if washed in rusty water with stains. We found no remote for either the TV or the AC, and the person at the desk left immediately after our late check in. There is no resemblance between what we got and the pictures of rooms on the actual Hostal Veracruz website. Having said that, the room and its relatively newish bathroom were clean, and I believe the room was safe. The location in Madrid Centro next to Puerta del Sol is excellent though somewhat noisy. Taxis cannot access the hostal directly so you have to walk a block with your luggage, which surprised us but is no big deal. We were charged almost $250 dollars for our one night, which is absurdly overpriced. For people on a budget willing to pay no more than maybe $125 and not looking for something remotely 4 or even 3 star it works, and again the location is excellent. There are probably other hostals in the neighborhood which are actually "nice." But it was not what we expected or led to believe based on the Veracruz website and we would never pay that price for a place like that and would not choose it again.

Negative impact and reality shock

The hostal is overrated and overpriced. The room was so old with below average condition, however my booking was for a superb double room. To pay such an amount of 137 USD for one single night I think I should be accommodated in a hotel not a hostal. Hotel.com should provide and investigate more accurate information about the properties announced as the photo and the review refelect completely different image

This hostel had a great location, close to major sites. Restaurants around every corner, close to supermarkets and no more than a 20 minute walk to El Retiro park, great statues and place to relax and row a boat! Staff was pleasant, and despite being in a fairly busy area, noise was minimal, beds were comfy and the hostel was clean.
