The property is well situated in a quiet street in the center just steps from the crowded Gran Vía. The apartment was good and clean but not great because it lacked space in the bedroom, it was very tight between the bed and the closet, you couldn’t walk through, had to cross over the corner of the bed to get to that side. In the kitchen even though we weren’t planning to cook, it was only very basic stuff, it even lacked some other basic things like a cutting board, more utensils like a bread knife, cups, etc. None of that was the worst part, the second night we couldn’t sleep at all because the people in the apartment above us were making terrible noise and arguing, the front desk was closed and we tried to call the number posted as the right one for that time of the night but nobody answered

Will do for a few nights

Positives: - Great location - Easy check in and secure - Got towels changed each day - Clean - It had a small kitchen with fridge, microwave, kettle Negatives: - The shower holder was faulty - My room was OK, but it had no windows other than one that opened into the communal area. So no natural light - My room was right next to the kitchen area so I heard everything every time someone used the kitchen. - The Wi-Fi kept dropping, every day, so this must be a constant problem Overall, I wanted somewhere cheap and central and this served its purpose.

Good and excellent location

Apartment was good and location unbeatable...however I woke up early to leave...it was mis winter and cold because heathers where turned off, even water heater! I had to look for it and turn it, waiting a while for it to heat and still only had a half warm shower...not nice when waking up in winter and when leaving for an intercontinental flight!

Good location but they gave us an extremely small room for two people. We have two pieces of luggage, the second one no place to put it. The shower had no place to put the soap. and no place for any toiletries like deodorant or toothbrushes and toothpaste around or above the pedestal washbasin.I certainly will not recommend this hostel.

A room without a view

So booked the basic room. No issues with it being basic. However having said this I was not away I would have no window! The bed was so hard too. I had some friends staying who had suites they had a super soft bed with duvet. I had a sheet. Only one power outlet. The room I had was next to the washing machines so could hear them constantly. There basic and there too basic.

Noisy. And bathroom layout could not be worse.

Staff and location were OK; however, we needed to sleep with earplugs for the 5 nights we were there. Drunks in the street from 2 - 6 AM, yelling and making noise. There are double pane windows on the room; however, they do nothing to reduce street noise. Most were speaking English, some yelling about Texas. Room had listed amenities; but the flooring is coming apart and uneven, possibly a trip hazard. The bidet is ACTUALLY only 3" from the toilet, no way to sit squarely on the toilet. They used a misleading image for the Family Studio bathroom on their web site. Also the faucet for the shower stuck out about 8" into 24"x24" shower enclosure.

Great stay in the center of Madrid

Can't say enough good things about this property! Right off the Gran Via (a main thoroughfare in the center of Madrid), convenient to the Metro and buses, restaurants, shopping, and major sites of interest. It is not a fancy place but had everything we needed and great WiFi for the little bit of time we actually spent in the room. But mostly, I can't say enough good things about the people who worked there at reception, Andrea and Adrian! Their willingness to help with information, directions, and their command of English was so helpful to these Americans whose command of Spanish is sorely lacking! Multiple times Andrea's help and information really helped us out but without her kind help and attention to detail, we would not have been able to so seamlessly navigate the Covid testing we needed to do before entry into the US. Adrian helped us with the train schedules and station locations we needed for some day trips we had planned and both absolutely took care to explain everything we needed to know. This is not a fancy place, but safe, clean, comfortable beds and a unique and reasonable set up to stay right in the thick of things! And a washer and dryer to use from 6-10 PM and they provide the detergent (10 Euros to use-well worth it for these carry-on only travelers!) We and our friends had suites with a small kitchen and king size bed. Highly recommend!

Tamaño del cuarto no fue lo que vi en las fotos de expedida, zero parecido, publicidad engañosa, tamaño del cuarto es como de una celda de prisión, no hay ventanas, todo se escucha, aire acondicionado. se apaga cada 3 mins, las toallas las cambian cada 3 días. No es para dos personas o pareja. Closet es miniatura con 3 ganchos de colgar. Si vienes con maletas grandes estas reduciendo aun más tu movilidad dentro del cuarto. Si sufres de claustrofobia la vas a pasar mal. Lo único que puedo comentar positivo es que la ubicación está super bien cerca de toda la Gran Vía. Personal es amable hasta donde le permite sus reglas. El lugar es seguro.
