Despite a great location and friendly staff I wouldn’t recommend nor stay in the hotel again. Luckily it was only 1 night, would have moved if I was suppose to stay there any longer. The room was tiny, view on the wall, scary, claustrophobic lift, dodgy and smelly entrance to the building. No soundproofing so I could even here the people next door snoring. Not a good night sleep and deffo not worth the price paid.

Secured and close to everywhere.

I slept really well, no noise, and good views at Sky 44 and even from my window. The only thing it is on the 7th floor and elevator had issues in addition of me not liking the small elevator I used the stairs in total 9 floors from the base. They close the door at midnight, but they say you can use your car to open the door. The only thing I did not like was there is no mini fridge.Make sure you get what you selected.

La localizacion es muy buena, a pasos de todo. El aire acondicionado no se podia controlar desde el cuarto, hacia calor. Se escuchaban ruidos de otros huespedes. Subi varias veces los 7 pisos por las escaleras pues el ascensor tardaba en llegar y era pequeno. Cama comoda y cuarto pequeno pero para dormir ok.

El check in fue muy desordenado. Aparte de eso, no podíamos controlar la temperatura del aire acondicionado desde nuestra habitación y tuve que salir tres veces a pedirle al de recepción que si lo podía prender o bajarle por qué no estaba funcionando( en pleno verano), al final nunca enfrió.

The staff was amazing, the location was unmatched, and the breakfast on the rooftop was great. That said, we had constant issues with the AC. The first night it didn’t work at all, and the second night it only barely worked. Additionally, the elevator was a constant problem. One four-person capacity elevator serves the hotels on the fifth, seventh, eighth, and ninth floors. We frequently ended up just having to climb eight flights of stairs. Besides the elevator and the AC, we had no issues.

It’s no 5 star hotel but it did the job - right in the middle of town. Amazing views at the roof top. Walking distance to everything. So many restaurants and souvenir stores. Elevator only holds 3 people due to weight restriction so plan ahead. Hotel is on the 7th floor. No complaints at all. Only stayed in the room to sleep And shower.

Me hospedé en el Hostal Josefina y mi experiencia fue mixta. Ubicación: 5/5 La localización es simplemente perfecta, en plena Gran Vía, con acceso inmediato a estaciones de metro como Callao, Santo Domingo y Gran Vía. Además, hay una gran variedad de restaurantes, tiendas y comercios a pocos pasos, lo que facilita cualquier necesidad durante la estadía. Servicio: 5/5 El personal fue muy amable y atento en todo momento, lo cual hizo la estancia más agradable. Siempre estuvieron dispuestos a ayudar con cualquier consulta o necesidad. Comodidad: 1/5 Aquí es donde el hostal tiene su mayor debilidad. La habitación era demasiado pequeña, y lo mismo el baño y la ducha, lo que hacía que el espacio se sintiera incómodo. Para estancias cortas y solo para dormir puede estar bien, pero si buscas más comodidad, este aspecto puede ser un problema. En resumen, si la prioridad es la ubicación y un buen servicio, el Hostal Josefina es una opción excelente. Sin embargo, si el espacio y la comodidad son importantes para ti, quizás sea mejor considerar otras alternativas.

Loved the location and the reception staff was very nice, my only complaint is that the cleaning staff gets way too loud in the mornings, especially the older lady who seems to constantly give loud instructions to the rest as if she was arguing with them. Other than that, it would be a great choice.

Excellente localisation, insonorisation pas top

Localisation sur Grand Via parfaite pour faire le centre de Madrid à pieds ou en transports en commun, cependant gros négatif aucune isolation on entend tous les bruits, prévoir les bouchons d'oreilles pour dormir. Toutefois il y a des bons points : chambre et salle de bain propres, lit confortable et le tarif plutôt intéressant.
