Comments: This hostel is in a great location, right by Puerta del Sol. The rooms were spacious and clean, although the hostel seemed deserted the entire time we were there. The staff is not overly friendly, although we didn't encounter any issues when staying there. If you are looking for a quiet, cheap stay, this is a safe bet!

Comments: We had an huge, amazing room with a balcony and a large, very clean bathroom. The hostel itself was very clean and well-decorated and in the best location - everything you need to see/do is within walking distance or at least a short metro ride. The men at the desk were less than friendly, but that didn't really affect us. It helps if you speak Spanish.

Comments: Nice location, very grumpy staff. They made us feel like an imposition on them, rather than like guests. We were glad to leave. There are plenty of other places to stay in Madrid.

Comments: The older man was so sweet, but the woman was so rude to my friend and i. She would not split the cost between the both of us and snapped at us numerous times. Overall the place was very nice though. And very clean.

Comments: We were really only in Madrid for two days and as we took an over night bus, we were at Hostal Aguilar only one night. But, we thought it was very pleasant. The location was amazing, really close to everything! And the staff was also very nice. We really weren't looking for a fun place to meet people, but as college students we really just wanted a decent place to stay at a good price where we didn't need to lug our own linens so for our purposes it was perfect.

Comments: fantastic location very close to Peurta del Sol. Rooms cleaned daily but towels very worn and grey. very noisy in the rooms as walls and doors very thin and clientele very noisy and inconsiderate, especially during the early hours. have stayed in much better hostels for the same price. Would we go back? definately not!!

Comments: Lack of toilet paper and soap! Towels a bit worn. Access to 2nd level of hotel required pressing buzzer for entry. Worked ok but a bit of a nuisance. A key would be better and more secure.

Comments: The location was great. It is near Puerta del Sol and Prado. If you can, take a room at the side of the hostel (at the front I think it is really noisy, there is a big street). You can hear anything what your neighbours say and our toilet was a disaster. But for this price you can't expect more.

Comments: Very well located hostel. 5 minutes from the Puerta del Sol. However, if you want a good sleep, it's difficult because the wall are so thin. I had much trouble to sleep during my stay because we heard the other travelers talking in the corridor

Comments: Good location near Plaza del Sol but they wanted us to be quiet and us students in our 20s arent very quiet. No yelling loudly at night-they came to our door. other than that it's super clean and nice, you get towels, and the staff even though they are mean, they are accomodating. It's on the 2nd floor and across the street but up a ways is a good breakfast place with like 3 euro spanish totilla!! dont forget where it is after all the chupitos tho.
