I really love the building, rooms and general atmosphere. Breakfast was so good, bathrooms were clean. Staff was very friendly, and all of them with a very cheap price! I really enjoyed the time I spent there.

This was a great place to stay for a few quiet nights. The employees were very friendly and helpful. This is not a party hostel but is perfect for getting rest in a clean hostel with a nice kitchen. The walls are thin and can make sleeping in a bit difficult. Overall a good spot fairly close to Puerto del Sol and other major areas.

The hostel is centrally located in a great neighbourhood. Staff is friendly and helpful and the rooms are cheap! Basic accommodations but excellent value for money. The bathrooms do lack some privacy, but overall we had a good stay,

The kitchen is pretty small and misses some equipment. There are also only two toilets and two showers which at the time was hardly a problem since the hostel wasn't totally booked, I can imagine that it will be though if there's more people. However, the hostel is very clean, the staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is great, because it's in the centre but on a quieter street. You find everything important (grocery stores, bars and all important sights) withing walking distance.

Bathroom need to be rethought. It's a little narrow.

Sorry but this hostel sucked for me. My room was right beside the lobby and the hostel is so small. When I was there, there were only 6 other people in the hostel and they all kept to themselves. The staff wasn't really helpful and the night guy would clean LOUDLY at 3 in the morning - what the hell?

Das Hostel war wirklich sehr preiswert und hat dafür eine gute Leistung geboten! Es gibt auch eine Küche mit Kochplatte und daher ist das Hostel auch gut zum Selbstversorgen geeignet. Eine rundum gute Location für Madrid :-)

I thought all in all this was a good hostel to stay at. I especially liked the area surrounding the hostel - not an area I would have explored otherwise. The staff were all very kind and made me feel right at home and the bathrooms and rooms were clean, but nothing spectacular.

You cannot expect much more in relation to the price you pay. Only for sleep, and well situated, it could be useful, though. Breakfast is acceptable. Not privacy, not security, and not so clean. Only for "all terrain" travelers.
