Hostal Andorra

It was amazing

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms clean and functional. Hostal perfectly situated right in the heart of Madrid with attractions, bars and restaurants within easy walking distance. This however leads to only downside as although on seventh floor, due to city centre location, dont expect a good nights sleep. City noise from into the wee small hours, starting again early morning is unavoidable. Loved Madrid and if we return wouldnt hesitate to stay in Hostal Andorra again.

Good place to stay for few nights-not fancy, but clean and comfortable. Single room was very small, but fine for me and my backpack! Can maybe change big TV in room for small fridge?! Easy walking to shops, metro, restaurants.

You could not get a hotel more centrally located, it's right on the main shopping street in Madrid.. that said, the decor is Russian sterility meets the swinging '60s. the room i was in was bland grey , but the bathroom was almost all done in orange tiles that are a bit of a shock when waking up. there are blackout shutters on the windows and as I was on a room facing the inner courtyard, it was quiet. TV is off-air, so little if any english programming. No issues with the wifi.There is air conditioning and a ceiling fan. After hours you must buzz the door on the street to gain access, then again when you reach the floor of the hotel. You leave your room key in a box next to reception. If you have heavy bags, you will have to negotiate a set of steps before you reach the elevators, that or the almost 45 degree angle ramp next to the steps. The staff speak very little english. I was only there for 3 nights and, for a place to sleep, it was just fine.

The hotel is old but well maintained. It is safe and close to everything : Metro, restaurants and attractions.
