Nice hostel and Location is great. The only negative about it is that I had to wait for almost 30 minutes for the receptionist to turn up and check me in.

Room is clean and we had private room for the family. Some private room has bathroom of its own some don’t. The one that has its own bathroom obviously is more convenient. The bunk bed is really tall and won’t be good for small children. But for a budget stay in the middle of city and close to metro, it’s doable.

The common room was a joke. It’s tiny for the size of the hotel and not enough room and the cushions are quite dirty. The room itself was very clean in the bathrooms and showers are very clean. The location is convenient Just a half a block from a metro stop. I would book this hotel again however I would not use Hotels.com to do so. I would book directly with the hotel.

They allowed me to check in early because they could tell that I was extremely tired from my long flight. I will be booking them again in my next trip to Madrid.

Very bad experience
There was no access to the terrace, and there was only one person in the reception which made the check-in very long.
Also they turn off the air conditioning in the night, and that was the worst part.
I'm never going back to that place.

A hostel not a hotel
My bed creaked noisily as soon as I got on it. Not great for a good night’s sleep. And there’s not much (any) sound insulation.
I accept it’s a hostel not a hotel, so you can’t expect hotel levels of quiet or comfort. But €197 is a lot to pay for a hostel…

I had a very comfortable and spacious room with two beds. The price was reasonable, and I didn't mind the shared bathroom. It's worth noting that the rooms in the front of the building can be a tad noisy with traffic from the street, but it wasn't too bad. My biggest concern was that the internet seemed slow and unreliable, constantly cutting out on both of my phones and my laptop, so I had to go to a co-working space down the block in order to get any work done.
