以前からの口コミで若者が多いとあり、それなりに覚悟はあったが昼夜逆転の人がおり、朝5時までバスルームを占領されトイレに行けず困った。 痴話喧嘩等も聞こえたり、若いが故のイザコザもあったようだ。 それなりに良い設備とサービスが有るので年配者が泊まり難いのは残念です。

Good option for a short stay

The location is great—super close to Plaza Mayor and well-connected for getting to other interesting spots in Madrid. The rooms are a bit small, but they were clean and perfectly fine for a short stay. The hostel has a nice rooftop, though it closes early. Overall, it’s a good option in Madrid, but it didn’t quite have that classic hostel vibe that makes it easy to meet new people.

First hostel experience

This was my first Hostel experience at the ripe age of 39! All I can say it was perfect, so clean, so comfortable, everyone staying were amazing and made memories with so many people. The staff were incredible and more than helpful! I can also recommend the sangria making workshop that is free of charge, it was a great opportunity to meet other guests and very lighthearted

Good hostel

Very centrally located which made exploring Madrid very easy, the staff were lovely and really helpful, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom facilities were good. Always very clean as well. Only issue was that it wasn't as social as it was made oit to be, but this wasn't helped by the poor weather meaning the rooftop was essentially out of action. The mixed shared dorm being on the street rather than in the building meant that we had some disturbances from passers by making noise late at night, but that was only brief.
