Andreas, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The hostel was generally fine, but we stayed there mainly for the jacuzzi, which was closed during our entire three-day stay. Overall, it was okay, but not my favorite place I’ve stayed at in Spain.

Outrageous price per night for what amounts to a hostel not a hotel. Shabby, needs a clean.
Spencer, 3-night trip

Miguel, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect Location! Hotel is great with good vibe and it’s full of cool people. Room was great, small as expected, but perfect to stay in the heart of Madrid. I’d definiitively stay here again.
Michel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It is very close to the Royal Palace and other landmarks.
Jorge, 13-night trip

8/10 Very good

Easy, convenient location m and lovely rooftop bar
Erica, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very modern hotel, in the heart of Madrid close to all the attractions. While I knew we were reserving a Hostel, I had not anticipated so many young people. Being in our later years this was a little overwhelming. People everywhere chattering, laughing and having a good time- but too much for us - would have preferred a more relaxing experience.
Maxine, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. What could be better - AC was weak, didn’t cool down the room to the comfortable level
Andrey, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s a nice place but spacing between beds are a bit small we were bumping into each other . No food options or dining table or kitchen .
Cinthia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

great stay
the lady that cleaned the room Jacqueline from the Dominican Republic did a great job cleaning and was very professional and friendly!
luis, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

4 stars. Convenient location, really nice rooftop view and bar area. Cons: Not huge issues but fyi - pretty full of young travel groups - so common areas were loud/busy during the day, great for groups. No soap in bathroom shower area, $6 towel rental (normal but just fyi). Sink, shower/bathroom is in bedroom area for some noise at night. Stayed here 1 day, stayed in another for 5 - I preferred another hostel in Madrid

10/10 Exceptional

Location is near to metro and shopping areas
Jose, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Close to food, shopping and public transportation. The staff are friendly and understanding. I strongly suggest to have your breakfast in the hotel. Another good thing about this hotel is that they have a restaurant on the main floor, and a rooftop bar / dining area. Though I would suggest that they keep the guest washroom open, even 30min after the restaurant closes; and cleaner 😉
ARNI, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy checkin and checkout. Pleasant staff.
David, 3-night trip

I did not like anything about this place.
