Breakfast should be better...

Las Musas has an amazing location. I felt very safe there. Also, the staff does an amazing job of remembering everyone who checks in. the breakfast was nice, something that I really missed when I moved onto my next hostel. However, the hostel is pretty big, so it is a little hard to meet everyone. You kinda have to work out your own little circle of acquaintances. But the size makes for always someone to talk to! Also, Very squeekey beds. But overall a good place with good people.

Great hostel ,fully renovated in a good location, close to the metro and downt town. Also its good if you are travelling alone and want to meet more travellers since they organize pub crawls,tapas night,drinking games,etc. Also its good that you have a room with computers with internet for free and also wi fi in the comoon areas for free. Another thing its the breakfast that its quite good. The down points are that its too noisy during the day and couple times didn t had hot water.

Too bad the living room was more a wifi room full of people spending their time on social networks rather than a place to meet real people...

Very friendly, clean hostel. Las Musas is centrally located, close to metro stations and only a 5 minute walk to center. Staff are very friendlly and always willing to help! The common area is always busy and it wasn't difficult to meet people. It looks newly refurbished and always very clean. One of the best I've stayed at!

Quite spacious and clean (rooms, bathrooms, common areas, etc). Walls were thin though, so sleeping in is difficult due to noise. Free Wi-Fi and use of computers was excellent. Free breakfast was quite simple and fairly limited (coffee, cereal, toast & jam). Free walking tour with Harriet was excellent. Pub crawl was decent, but not great, a good way to meet people though. I didn't really use the kitchen, but it seemed quite spacious and well-equipped. All-in-all a good hostel. Would recommend.

Brilliant hostel! The staff were friendly, professional and the hostel was always kept very clean. There were many activities planned so that there was always an opportunity to meet new people and explore Madrid. I became very sick, with a virus, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure that I was comfortable and well looked after. Location was perfect, clean sheets and towels and always plenty of new people to meet. Definately recommend staying at las Musas!

Las Musas is a really nice hostel, it's clean and the atmosphere is great. The only thing I have to complain about is the noise, specially on the weekend. Saturday was crazy, I heard noise the whole night, but i couldn't expect anything different from any hostel, which has a lot of young people who are trying to enjoy their lifes, right? I would, definetely, go back there :)

Walls are very thin so you can hear everything during the night! Bring earplugs!

The area is not the most beautiful, however it is close to everything. Even several touristic places. Anyway, it is a very cool place. I recommend it!
