"More like a 3 star than a Hostal" Tijcal I Hostal Madrid Tip by GinGinCoo

This Hostal was just steps away from Plaza Mayor, because of its location I thought it would be pretty noisy but surprisingly it wasnt, the reception area is on the 4th floor of the building and the rooms are very clean and even well decorated. The reception area is always open and the guy there named Saul is very helpful. It didnt look or feel like a Hostal at all, I've been to a lot of 3 star Hotels in Europe that wasnt as nice as this Hostal. For under $60 Euros/night it definitely was a great deal. Only thing kinda weird that I noticed was that the bathtub was really really small (but that didnt stop me from taking a bath! LOL).

They also have information on tours that you can take while in the city, you can actually purchase them in the reception area for the same price that the tour operators charge. You can store your luggage with them too if you check out and want to stay a while more or if you arrive early.

Unique Qualities: Steps away from Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol and the Sol Metro Station, and very clean. They also gave us a nice calendar on check out. :)
