“The owner was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, and the bathroom was spotlessly clean. The hostal is on the 3rd floor with an old style lift. You couldn't ask for a better city centre hostal.”

“The location couldn't be more central - right next to la Puerta del Sol. Very nice room and bathroom. My personal favourite is the glass unit (not that commmon in Spain) that did not let the noise from the street into the room.”

“Very central location, so was walking distance to plenty of restaurants/shops, with plaza mayor and puerta del sol just round the corner. You can hear the rooms around you a little bit, but we didn’t hear any of the outside noise”
