Hostal Luis XV

good position, located at the 8th floor, so it's quite well insulated from the road. some rooms have a very beautiful balcony around the building

small bathroom; too much light into the room in the morning (avoid the rooms on Calle Montera for this reason)

Reception is open 24hours, a big room, every room has its own bathroom, 8th floor so quiet, but in the centre of madrid

To enter the hostal, you have to pass the girls in the street, but that is normal when the hostal is situated in the hooker area of madrid.

Very cental location, nice views of Madrid from rooms and reception.

Wifi almost didn't work at all, My Gmail loaded in 2 minutes after clicking the reload button for 10 times. Horrible smell in the room. Turned out to come from the bathroom. Got a bit better after I let the water flow from the tap and in the shower for 15 min, and leaving the bathroom door closed. The fan in the bathroom didn't work, room got very damp after showering = bad maintenance, There are so many hostels in Madrid, I'd recommend you to choose another hostel instead.
