Alvaro Residencia

Beds were really comfortable. Our room and the shared bathrooms were really clean. There is a kitchen which you can use to cook meals. They provide you with coffee and tea also. It is a five minute walk from Sol which was very convenient. Quick note: staff does not know English, so I recommend practising a little Spanish :)

Great location! Facilities good, friendly staff, accommodating to allow my luggage to be held past checkout time. Quieter neighborhood than I'd expected. Hair dryer and an electric plug adaptor provided, very helpful.

Everything was ok, I just wished English was spoken by personnel. Also, there was an elevator problem the day I checked in.

Location, location, location - it's excellent! Easy access to major attractions on foot. Although 3 shared bathrooms, there is a sink in the bedroom, not all things need to go to the shared bathroom. Both the bedroom and the closet are secured by locks.

the staffs made the bed everyday, but we used the same set of hand towel and bath towel for the entire 4 days. I presume we could get freshly clean ones if we asked. But we were usually out from day break to close to midnight. So, we didn't ask.

Big room and good location. All attractions are within walking distance. We booked a room with shared bathroom. There are 3 shared bathrooms in the apartment. We have never waited for bathrooms. They also have some hairdryer for use. Their beds are very comfortable. The hostel keeper speaks little English. However, it does not mind, we can understand her well even we don’t understand Spanish. Lift is a plus for big baggage. For a short visit in central Madrid it’s a nice choice. They also have full equipment in the kitchen although we didn’t use it.

Our room faces the street and it was little loud in the night. The WiFi was slow.

Great location. Nice, clean rooms.

Kitchen is well equipped but a bit small for a hostel. Small round table with only 4 chairs. To me one of the best parts of staying in hostels is getting to meet people over a meal.
