Villar Madrid

Pros: Friendly staff. not exactly cheap for what it is, but slap bang central and very safe for belongings.
Cons: Toilet too close to wall.. and after all that jamon you will need a toilet.

Pros: The location was great.
Cons: The room was gross and very dirty. our door did not lock properly and when it did lock it took forever to unlock! it took us 20 minutes to leave our room. i also did not feel comfortable having to leave our room key at the front desk every time we left the hostal. even though the bathrooms were shared they could be a lot cleaner. they smelled so terrible i did not shower in them for the time that i was there. they could've also warned us of all of the construction that was happening in the front of the building. i woke up with nose bleeds from all of the dust that came in from the balcony.

Pros: Staff was nice location was excellent. shared bathroom was no problem. cleaning lady put up with a lot of dirt in the bathroom and trash in our room but she was still nice
Cons: Air conditioning would have been nice at night

Pros: Отель расположен в самом центре Мадрида, рядом с площадью Санта-Ана, примерно в трехстах метрах от метро Сол, недалеко находятся большинство достопримечательностей и музеев города. Мы прибыли в отель ночью и нас гостеприимно встретил сам хозяин отеля, проводил нас до номера. У нас сложилось очень хорошее впечатление о служащих отеля - администраторах и горничных. Они нам ни в чем не отказывали, комната была чисто убрана, один из администраторов знал русский язык и очень нам помогал, в том числе настроил беспроводной интернет в компьютере.
located in the heart of madrid, next to plaza santa ana, about three hundred meters from the metro sol, close to most tourist attractions and museums. we arrived at the hotel at night and we were warmly greeted the master of the hotel, took us to the room. we got a very good impression of the hotel employees - administrators and maids. they tell us nothing had been denied, the room was clean taken away, one of the administrators knew the russian language and helps out a lot, including set up wireless internet in the computer.
Cons: Поскольку наши окна выходили на улицу Принсипе, а не во двор, то по пятницам и субботам народ в городе (такова традиция в Испании и, конечно, в Мадриде) гуляет до утра, и мы вместе с ними, но уже у себя в комнате, не спали до 6 утра.
Но это никакая не претензия, а просто констатация факта.
because our windows faced the street principe, rather than into the yard, then on fridays and saturdays, people in the city (it is a tradition in spain and, of course, in madrid) walks up in the morning, and we with them, but already in his room, no sleep till 6 am.
but it does not claim, but simply a statement of fact.

Pros: Great location. friendly staff, most of them with no english
Cons: There was no intention to give us the double room we reserved - in the two visits at the hotel, we had to insist. bring a coat if u come in winter - the room is cold!

Pros: The buffet is nice
Cons: Make sure the mattress is clean. look under the white sheets and pillows. not stubble for married or couples.

Pros: Very kind staff, excellent location, clean room.
Cons: The rooms are a little old and would deserve to be repainted.
