Great clean room centrally located
Penthouse room was great for a group of friends. Only one bathroom, though, and no door on the shower. Get to the breakfast at the hostel if you can - it was excellent. Centrally located. Can walk to major sites. Subway stop about 2-3 blocks away.

Wonderful stay! Near everything in city center.
Very clean and comfortable. Each of my family members were able to get their own bunkbed which we all loved a lot. Great location, accessible to everything the city has to offer: food, attractions, travel, tourist sites. Would definitely come here again.

Gem Of A Hostel
Ideal location for our Metallica weekend. Great welcome with complimentary drinks. Twin room with balcony was of a high standard. All public areas were of a high standard as was the food in the restaurant. Lots on offer and we joined the free historical walking tour which was very informative. There was a friendly vibe around the place with facilities for all guests.

I like the location of this place that it is close to most attractions in Madrid including the Royal Palace and Plaza Mayor, but the Room space is very tiny, I don’t like bunk beds Bec can’t sleep with my husband, very noisy at night bec of the bars across the street.

Fantastic hostel stay
Excellent stay at this centrally located hostel. The shared room was spacious and very clean with 2 lockers for clothes and bags (you have to bring your own padlock). The lounge offered different spaces for single individuals and groups which made it easy to chill out. The breakfast buffet included cereals, scrambled eggs, mushrooms, tortillas, breads, fruits, juices, cheeses, churros and hot drinks to satisfy most if not all tastes. I would thoroughly recommend this accommodation for an enjoyable visit to this lively city.

Es moderno y bonito. Las camas cómodas y limpias. Fui en familia y tuve una habitación privada. Tuvimos la mala suerte que siendo primavera hacía calor y no apagamos el aire, así que no entendíamos porque hacía tanto calor en la noche. Finalmente lo apagamos y pudimos dormir. es en un barrio cerca a todo aunque no es el barrio más bonito. Pero si lo volvería a usar el hostel, las personas son súper amables y es muy moderno todo!

This was the cleanest hostel that we were really impressed by. We are a family of 5- 2 adult & 3 kids, so we decided to book their 6 bed room. The room was basic but clean. The staff/ guest services was exceptional. They have 24 hr front desk which was very helpful. They answered our questions patiently. The look of this property is very trendy and has a good vibe. We also got their help to book a taxi back to the airport and it was very convenient. Overall had nice experience at this hostel.

This property was a great value for our family of five. The room is pretty much no frills with three sets of solid bunk beds with very comfortable mattresses. Exactly what we were looking for! The location is quiet and the blackout curtains on each bunk made for great sleep. The breakfast buffet was better than expected with multiple fresh options. All of the areas we visited in Madrid were within walking distance of the hostel. Lastly, the staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. Will definitely keep this company in mind when visiting other cities as they do have other locations.

First time to write a review for a hotel/hostel. I just really need to share how great this hostel is. What you see in the pictures is what it is, modern, looks clean. The only difference is the room we had. It looked a little smaller but it didn't matter. My daughter loved her stay too. She would always play around at the mini plaza while we waited for my wife and other relatives. She even cried when we told her we were leaving. The Service is the best part of the hostel, especially Ibrahim, who assisted us on our checkin and also on the issue we had on our transfers. We'll definitely go back. Thank you.
