“The location in Chueca is fantastic. Fresh pastries at breakfast were a great start to the day, and the staff were lovely. The Wi-Fi made streaming movies easy.”

“My first time in a hostal and I had some preconceptions, but I was pleasantly surprised. The location is great, just a few metres from Gran Vía metro. My room on the fourth floor had been recently refurbished (the reception said two years ago) – simple but tasteful, with a very new and clean bathroom. The single bed was a good size (at least 1.35m). I couldn't have breakfast due to my schedule, but I'll try it next time. The price isn't cheap – it's Madrid – but the central location was key for me. Good choice, I'll be back.”
