Pensions in Madrid

"Great if you're staying for just a few days. I chose this single room because I was arriving late by plane, and it allows for check-in at any hour, but the conditions they set and the potential charges for every single thing are absurd. They provide an endless list of extra fees in case anything happens."

"First off, there's nowhere to store your belongings, and they really don't care even if you ask. So, if you have a lot of luggage and need to leave it somewhere, you can't. Another thing, it's noisy all day long in the same spot, with workers making noise, passing by your room with their doors open, and using the same kitchen and everything. I don't recommend it. You can hear everything through the walls in the rooms, so if you're talking, everyone can hear. It's not a good place to rest. The only good thing is the location; the rooms are nothing special."

"Everything was great — the location, building itself BUT it was so noisy at night. I would wake up 3-4 times during the night because other people in the hotel were talking, walking and moving objects and for me falling back asleep was almost impossible. So overall the hotel is great but it’s definitely not for light sleepers. Also there were many flies in the room, but the rest was ok"

"When applying, please include in the email notifying you of upcoming stay in large letters that ”You must contact the owner by the day before to confirm your check-in and receive the building key and room key number. Without them, you will not be able to enter the building on the day of your stay.” Even though the instructions were written in small letters and we bought them, there were four groups of people, including me, who were unable to enter the building because they only thought that it would be better to do it the day before. There was no information on where to find the key after entering the building, even on WhatsApp. There was a keyboard next to the room door. There is no 24-hour front desk, and only cleaning staff are in the building. You can only contact the service staff via WhatsApp. It would be a good idea to have taxi information and a map of the area left in the entrance hall. There is no elevator. There is only a lift for luggage. There was no instruction on how to use it, so I wish it was posted. Everyone got in by mistake. The lock on the room door was loose, so it was shaking. The walls were thin, so I could hear loud voices from next door. After I was able to enter the building, the kind cleaning lady showed me how to get there. I would have been lost without her. The room itself was small, but very clean and comfortable. The furnishings in the hallway were also beautiful. I called a taxi to the airport using my Uber app. She called it accurately."

"There was a few hurdles to jump for this one But great Clean the showers although shared pumped The room is very small So close to the metro Would stay again"

"Located right in Sol Square, good transportation, even if you are on a train You can walk to Atocha Station and the airport is also the best access because there is an airport railroad from Metro Sol. It is composed of one floor, but there is no inconvenience, especially if you return home."

"The biggest problem is that the toilet tank motor makes a loud noise from time to time! Every time I'm startled awake, I think a water pipe has burst (this happened three times). It seems to be triggered by someone flushing. The room door is a wooden door with no soundproofing. I can hear neighbors coughing, alarm clocks, and hallway noises, not to mention guests talking on the phone or chatting loudly in their rooms. My room faces the front desk, and in the morning I can even hear staff organizing papers and adjusting chairs. I stayed from October 30th to 31st (temperature between 10-20 degrees Celsius) and used a fan (with speeds 1-5). There is no air conditioning, window, hairdryer, hair conditioner, or toothbrush (commonly not provided in European hotels, you need to bring your own!). Two towels, a bar of soap, shampoo, and shower gel are provided. Water pressure and temperature are good. A five-minute walk takes you to an indoor market that starts at 10 am. The market prices are geared towards tourists, and you'll see mostly tourists. Unless you're a light sleeper and have trouble falling asleep, this place is definitely not suitable for summer."
