Very well located with a lot of things to do. Rooms were a bid small for a family of 3 but having the private room with bathroom in a hostal was a plus. Close to metro and walkable areas. AC and tv in the room.

Excellent Location

We had a two room suite for the three of us and it was very comfortable. However, the bathroom was very extremely small. The rooms were clean. The location was convenient to many attractions and we walked almost everywhere we went in Madrid.

Very attentive staff, clean towels and sheets, kindly accommodate our luggage before checking in and after checking out.
Lucy, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Too expensive for the place.The room needs renovation. Everything in the room is old including the bed covers, the beds were not comfortable at all. The place is very noisy and you can’t sleep, there is no explanation for noise

Dairan, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The place is in a great location, the staff is amazing and the bedroom are ok for the price.
Osmani, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

At no stage did I receive any confirmation of my booking for this property, so I had to book another property for our stay. It ended up being quite expensive as the new booking was at such short notice, plus the fact that I had already paid for Hostal El Pilar. I am home now and not at all happy with the fact that the communication was non existent
Neil, 4-night trip

6/10 Okay

This is a very basic hostal in close proximity to the Plaza Mayor and the heart of Madrid. It is quiet, clean, and secure and everything is in good working order. Reception is available 24 hours and the staff is familiar with the area and helpdul. If you require modern and updated lodging, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for an affordable and convenient place in central Madrid, this could be the place for you.
Carol, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Place pretty , clean but is loud ! Can heard all my next room guest . Didn’t test well during my stay ! I heard everyone’s phones alarm
