10/10 Exceptional

Location was great for touring Madrid. We walked to many attractions and restaurants. Staff was very friendly, helpful and efficient. Room was small but had everything we needed and a nice bathroom. AC was much appreciated since the temperature in Madrid got up to 38 degrees during our stay.

8/10 Very good

Super friendly staff, very well maintained. Since it is centrally located, be prepared for it to be noisy late at night if you get a room w balcony since it faces a semi busy street. Overall a lovely experience for my first time in this city.

10/10 Exceptional

The location, staff, and cleanliness were excellent. Our room was small but adequate. I would have liked a window with a little bit of a view but it was still fine as we didn’t spend much time in the room. Definitely good for the price and location. I did see larger rooms with windows/balconies. You can walk to most major sites and tons of restaurant options. I would recommend.

6/10 Good

Clean room and great location, very nice staff, but room is way too small for the price, and noise can be disruptive both from the outside and just as bad from the adjacent rooms, because the walls must be made of paper. I could hear everything and every single word people talked in the adjacent rooms. Not worth the 142 euros I paid for one night

We had such a great stay at the Royal Cruz! I do warn, it is on a busy street, so expect noise. But it is incredibly walkable and the staff were amazing!

10/10 Exceptional

This hostel was very nice and exceptionally clean. The staff were kind and welcoming, and the location was absolutely superb—everything was within walking distance, making it perfect for exploring the city and enjoying the nightlife. The only downsides for us were that the walls seemed quite thin, so we could hear conversations from other rooms, and the mattress was a bit too firm for our comfort. That said, because of the amazing location and cleanliness, I would still highly recommend this place, especially for travelers looking to experience the city and be close to all the historical local.

Very conveniently located in central Madrid - all local sites walkable. Area around hotel is a little seedy, but not bad - there are a lot worse areas in Madrid. There is a great variety of restaurants and bars in the area.

Squeaky clean,ship shape hostel room with private bathroom proved perfect for our quick stay in Madrid. Has everything you need in small space. Very helpful and friendly staff went to great lengths to make us comfortable. Neighborhood has sights and sounds and tons of cafes but simple quiet and clean haven upstairs.

Great place to stay at a great location. At the very center of Madrid and very quiet (I had an internal room). Close to everything.| The room was great, looks new, clean and well maintained. Staff is great and friendly. There is a central dining area with courtesy water and snacks. The small thing that I would improve is that they give tiny bags of soap and shampoo, which is a bit of a hassle to deal with (on my last night they forgot to put new ones), instead of having a refillable bottle as in most places today.
