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.

The staff was just amazing. So helpful and available 24/7. The location is great - so close to Mayor Real. The site is clean and safe and I met nearly everyone staying there. I'm 58 yrs old and have never felt younger or hipper than I did staying here. Every night is free Sangria - and a chance to meet fellow travelers - and the roof bar is so cool! Great value breakfast, too! Couldn't be happier that I stayed here.

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at!

Fantastic- will definitely return! Highly recommend :) I’ve stayed in lots of hostels and this is one of the best. Staff were incredible - so helpful and friendly. It really makes such a difference to the vibe and energy of the place when the staff are awesome. Lots of info and everything was made so easy. Super clean. Great bathrooms and showers. Excellent location in centre of Madrid but on a quiet street. No outside noise. Air con in the rooms and throughout the property, which was excellent for summertime. Lots of little details that were appreciated- phone holder when charging bed. Sockets and curtain at bed. Comfy mattress and pillows. Roof terrace is incredible. All the common spaces are comfortable and spacious. Social atmosphere if you’re looking for that -lots of activities, Luggage storage, etc. Gracias Hat Madrid :)

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 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.

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
