- martin (8/5): Gente amable, buena ubicación - La ubicación. Las camas cómodas. Hermosa terraza y bar. No hubo nada desagradable
- Adriana (10/5): - La ubicación
- Adri Ming (9/5): - La acogida desde recepción. La climatización en la habitación. Sin poder regularla, mucho calor y ambiente seco.
- Leonl (8/5): Boa estadia - Bom atendimento, Muito barulho por parte dos outros hóspedes
- Érica (6/5): Confortável, bem localizado mas o preço não compensa - O staff era muito simpático e super disponível para ajudar no que fosse preciso. Localização era perfeita Acho que foi muito caro para o hostel que era. Além disso tive que pagar vários extras tipo toalha alugada e deixar a mochila num cacifo pago. As pessoas que estavam nos quartos também não eram muito amigáveis, é preciso ter sorte com as pessoas que calham no quarto
- Barbara (3/5): Great if you want basic group accomodation. If not then don’t go there - Location ok
- Nazly (9/5): -
- Jessica Giovanna (8/5): Excelente ubicación - La ubicación, esta muy bien conectado. Que no tenga cortinas, mis compañeros de habitación llegaban de madrugada y al encender la luz, era muy molesto, tenía que despertarme a las 6 a.m.
- Claire (6/5): A great location and good for big groups, but not for individual travellers - Super central location, clean, comfortable rooms that were a good size. Also the rooms were pretty quiet given the central location. This hostel is very geared up for groups. During our stay, many of the facilities advertised were booked out by those groups, and had been closed off to other guests. This included the rooftop bar, which was one of the reasons we booked the hotel, so it was particularly disappointing not to be able to use it. Also there was no apology when staff told us that we wouldn't be able to use it - just a simple 'no, you're not allowed in'.
- Tim (2/5): Great location but really need to improve things. - Good location Service at the rooftop bar was awful. Waitress had zero customer service skills and was rude. Carpets looked like they hadn't been cleaned for years. Food at rooftop bar was not great and expensive for what it was.
- Gloria (10/5): - La ubicació està molt be Les lliteres cómode i amplies Tot molt net
- Adela (8/5): Agradable - Molt be No hi ha tovalloles
- Julya (8/5): Custo e benefício bom - O hostel é bem grande, logo, o fluxo é enorme, muitas excursões de adolescentes. Gostei muito da localização, perto de muitos pontos turísticos. Senti falta de uma cozinha compartilhada pra poder fazer algo pra comer, tomar café..
- Bianca (9/5): - Great location, really nice staff, thoughtful details and has everything for a comfortable stay. The room was a little small and it was a bit loud, but it is a hostel. It was overall a comfortable stay.
- Mañana (7/5): - A localização é muito boa! Próximo da avenida principal a Gran Via . Muitos pontos turísticos, para compras, restaurantes, supermercados e etc. Café da manhã simples, porém completo. O banheiro tem um box bem apertado,, pouco apoio para colocar os produtos de higiene. No quarto, a cama superior da beliche o acesso pela escada é complicado.
- Vicenzo (10/5): - Muy buena ubicación y muy bonito hotel.

- Houcine (6/5): -
- Norbert (7/5): -
- Francesco de Agazio (1/5): - I made a reservation and was misled. Upon arrival at the reception, I was informed that my reservation had to be canceled because the rooms were for women only. As shown in the screenshots I took today, this information is not clearly stated. My reservation was canceled on the same day it was made, yet the full amount was retained. I have filed a complaint with the competent authorities.

- Flor (9/5): - Me encantó la ubicación , las instalaciones el baño muy cómodo , el personal de la recepción excelente , volvería porqie super adorable ! si pequeño detalle la chica de limpieza 7 am abrió la puerta prendió la luz y gritó diciendo que tenía que bajar urgente a recepción , llegó porque dormida no entendía nada y era una confusión que mi cama entraba en mantenimiento , esas cosas no deben pasar .
- Diego (5/5): Pésimo equilibrio entre costo y calidad/servicio - La ubicación Tuvimos que reclamar la limpieza del baño. Hacía frío en la habitación y no lo pusieron resolver ya que la regulación es central y no podían regularla en las condiciones necesarias y estaba lleno de grupos de adolescentes que generaban muchas molestia, ruidos, etc
- Alejandro (10/5): - Habitación y ubicación N/A
- Mercedes (10/5): -
- Polonca (9/5): Odlična lokacija, skoraj vse lahko obiščeš peš. - Generator Hostel Madrid je bil čisto v redu. Lokacija je odlična, blizu centra in metroja. Prostori so moderni in čisti, osebje prijazno, skupni prostori pa prijetni za druženje ali počitek. Postelje so udobne, kopalnice dobro vzdrževane. Nič pretirano posebnega, ampak zelo solidna izbira za kratek obisk Madrida.
- Andre (10/5): Hostel maravilhoso no coração de Madri - A localização é ótima, perto da grand via e de vários pontos turísticos. Os funcionários são muito atenciosos. O colchão também é muito confortável. Além de ducha no quarto, há duchas no corredor. O rooftop é maravilhoso, confira!
- Sophie (9/5): -
- Bali (10/5): -
- Sergio (9/5): -
- Irma (10/5): -
- Nick (5/5): - Very central - good location. Rooftop area completely closed with no access to jacuzzi the entire stay. This wasn’t pre warned before check in. Saturday bar closed for a private party. Again, no communication beforehand.
- Alexandre (7/5): - A localização é perfeita, centralizada, perto dos principais pontos turísticos. Os quartos são funcionais e bem equipados. O bar e o rooftop tornam o espaço muito interessante. Muito baralho nos horários de descanso. O hotel estava cheio de adolescentes, durante a noite gritavam, corriam de um lado para o outro, faziam muito barulho e incomodavam quem estava querendo dormir.
- Fidelina (5/5): -
- Margarita (9/5): -
- Rafael (10/5): Estadia tranquila, acesso rápido e inúmeras facilidades no próprio hostel -
- Andrea (9/5): Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo nel centro di Madrid - Ottima posizione in centro, pulizia della camera buona, presenti 1 asciugamano grande a persona, 1 asciugamano per le mani per tutti, asciugacapelli e saponi per doccia e mani, buona insonorizzazione anche se in realtà la nostra finestra dava nel cortile interno, al check in ci hanno dato un token per una consumazione offerta sul rooftop Cuscini un po' troppo sottili
- Griselda (9/5): muy bien ubicado y el personal extremadamente amable - na las camas
- Roxeiby (8/5): - La tensión y las áreas
- Mohamed amine (8/5): -
- Michelle (5/5): Not so good - Location Dark, felt unsafe, deteriorated facilities. Terrible room: no safe, no luggage space, barely any A/C, hard noisy bed, intermittent hot water, no soap, thin gypsum walls. Paid $225 for a hostel‑level stay when better hotels cost $90–180. Unacceptable.
- luisa (10/5): muy recomendado! - La ubicación es excelente.
- Sanchez Bohorquez (1/5): No ubo estancia sirio acordado cerrado - Hola cómo estás no me pude hospedar porque el sitio donde me donde reserve estaba cerrado perdí todo mi dinero no me lo han devuelto me parece el pésimo el servicio ustal las rosas No me pude hospedar llegué el hostal estaba cerrado me ubicaron en un cierto pésimo no me quedé me quedaron de volver el dinero y él ahora que no me lo han devuelto se llamaba hostal Las Rosas lo pagué todo por adelantado con dos meses de anticipación no me avisaron

- GABRIELA (10/5): cómodo y buena ubicación - la ubicación
- Johanna (8/5): Soñada - Muy buena ubicación, es cerca de todos los lugares emblemáticos de Madrid. Muy práctico!! Las instalaciones muy lindas, super limpio. Lo único que no me gusto es el olor que salía de las duchas comunes, no estaban sucias porque se veían limpias pero pasando por el pasillo se sentía el olor a cloaca. Las habitaciones super amplias y cómodas. En mi caso tenía baño y ducha en la habitación. Las camas cómodas, deberían mejoras las almohadas. Recomiendo pagar el desayuno porque es buffet y muy completo. El bar de el hotel es muy lindo al igual que el bar de la terraza.
- mary (10/5): Fabulous Friendly Fantastic location and vibes - Very modern great location we had dinner there pizza/ salad was fantastic and you get a token when you check in for a free drink .real mixture of ages staying .Breakfast buffet good value .Would def book again. Look at size of baileys free drink wouldn't get that in UK ! We went up to rooftop bars which was great location but weather meant no events happening also first night there were private events so you couldn't really stay at hostel for meal / drinks but it wasn't a problem
