Look out
No soap, towels or toilet paper. Not what I was hoping to have to deal with.
while clean and well maintained, this was a very simple 'hotel' We were told showers & bathroom were separate, but we weren't told where towels were and didn't think to ask. Couldn't find them during off hours of 'front desk' Internet worked when you sat next to router down the hall, we couldn't connect in the room. Internet password about 25 characters long, with letters & numbers intermixed. We selected it only because it was an unknown (to us) holiday weekend in Madrid and all downtown rates were in the 500 Euro range. No phone or TV in rooms.
The heat was out on the day arrived and a room heater was not offered until the second night. There was no hot water in the showers and they charged a euro for a towel. Only stay if you are desperate.
Well... I'm sure the "manager" of the hotel tries hard... It's not his fault, that there is no room service (apparently there is a cleaning devices storage room somewhere so you can clean the room at the end of your stay! :D), that the lock in your door is broken, there is no proper safety locker in the whole hotel and the hotel smells funny...
Cons:
- the elevator doesn not work most of the time
- the hallways are usually dark
- the washrooms are shared
- the attendant doesn't speak a word if English
Pros:
- Worth the 22€/night I paid in Sept.
- close to Metro and downtown
- Burger King next door open til midnight
- very quiet, unless it was not occupied when I was there
Good price and nice location. My room, however, had no window and was less than clean. The manager seemed to be incovenienced by my arrival and didn't want to be bothered.
If you are looking for a cheap place to stay that is withing 5 minutes walk from a metro stop this place is a good choice. HOWEVER, there is no air conditioning so in the summer staying in the room is unbearable. Also the manager is not too nice, she never gave us the WiFi password because it was not working on the top two floors, also the website said we could pay with credit card but when we got there we had to pay cash because the credit card machine was not working. You get what you pay for but I would have paid 10 extra euros for dealing with someone nicer.
Tuve que llamar varias veces para que me abrieran la puerta. Me tocó llamar a un número de teléfono porque no abría nadie (y eran las dos de la tarde). Cuando me abrieron tuve que aguantar malas caras de la persona que me abrió.
Muy cerca de la parada de metro, bus en la misma puerta, personal agradable, servicios limpios pero los colchones no son muy cómodos y en las habitaciones que dan a la calle se escucha mucho ruido de los coches
Se encuentra en una buena zona justo al frente esta la parada de bus cerca esta la estación Márquez de vadillo, línea 5, esta línea los llevará a todas las estación es del centro de Madrid, detrás del hotel queda un parque bellísimo y hay en la zona de todo para comprar
Vad ni än gör åk inte sämsta stället på planeten och pyjamas gubben kmr bara att hassla er på pengar bedrägeri.

Opinión
En relación precio, es adecuado. Esta bien, en relación a la intimidad y tranquilidad. Lo único negativo es la limpieza de la sabanas y la ropa de abrigo. Adecuada amabilidad. Limpieza adecuada del resto de la habitación.

Billige, saubere Absteige in Stadtnähe
Leider spricht niemand englisch, weder gibt es einen Stadtplan noch Fahrplaninfos - aber free WiFi machts wett. Man hat nicht das Gefühl, dass man hier schon mal mit ausländischen Gästen zu tun hatte.
A menos de 24 horas de llegar al hotel me dijeron que anulaban mi reserva por un error informático. Resulta que seguían aceptando reservas cuando ya estaban completos, lo cual fue, como comprenderéis, algo horrible porque nos fue prácticamente imposible encontrar algo con ese tiempo y antelación.
Nada mas llegar nos dice el caballero que nose puede ni comer ni beber dentro de la habitacion,y que tendriamos que abandonar el domingo las 10:30 porque tenia que limpiar la habitacion porque a las 12 entraban nuevos clientes( cada media hora d retraso nos cobraria 5€ ) .Al llegar a la habitacion vemos que no tiene baño y el señor nos dice que esta puesto en la pagina,claro...(en ingles) ni darnos cuenta,despues nos aclara que pongamos bolsa en el cubo de basura y que al irnos la tirasemos, y para colmo colchones de hace 20 años hundidos en el centro y llenos de acaros...y yo alergica al polvo..jajaa
Malheureusement, j’étais très déçu avec l'auberge. En arrivant, le propriétaire étais très impoli et n’étais pas du tout accueillant. La chambre était sale et le wifi ne marchait pas. J'ai vu plusieurs punaise des lits dans la chambre mais le propriétaire n’étais pas concerné. Apres avoir passe le nuits avec quelques amis je suis venu a l'auberge et il était ferme, la clé ne pouvait pas ouvrir la porte. Je appelais plusieurs fois mais éventuellement j'ai du trouver un autre endroit pour passer le nuit, le fait que l'auberge ferme n’étais pas mentionne ni écrit. Je n'ai jamais passer un séjour assez mal a l'aise et inopportun.
J'ai été très déçue par l'accueil . Je n'ai même pas pu profité de mon séjour. Je n'ai pas été informée que la résidence fermait ses portes à 23 h. Je suis venue de l'aéroport , fatiguée; la résidence avait fermé ses portes et débranchée leur téléphone .j'ai été obligée de partir à la recherche d'un hôtel.
En revenant le lendemain à la résidence , j'ai été également déçue par la vétusté de l'endroit . Bien évidemment , la personne qui m'a accueilli m'a fait comprendre que je serai pas remboursée.
J'ai été donc très déçue par le manque d'information et la publicité mensongère véhiculée par cette résidence. À ne pas conseiller du tout.
La ubicación era buena sólo porque tiene un burguer king al lado, un parque muy lindo, el estadio Vicente Calderón y la parada de metro que nos llevaba al palacio vistalegre, pero era un barrio en el que sólo te encontrabas personas de la tercera edad y muy aburrido... el hotel muy pobre aunque el señor que nos atendió era un buen hombre pero por lo demás... muy pésimo, aunque por X euros la noche para dos personas no se puede pedir mucho más.
