Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small rooms — Several guests note that rooms are on the compact side, though balconies add a sense of space.
  • No on-site dining — The hostal does not have a restaurant, so you'll rely on the many nearby options, including the market.

“We loved everything! The location was amazing – next to a huge market with loads of food and drink options, about a 2-minute walk from Plaza Mayor and 5 minutes from Puerta del Sol. For the price, the rooms were decent, with a balcony and clean, comfy beds. The staff were kind and let us leave our luggage after checkout so we could enjoy more of Madrid. Would definitely recommend.”
