I stayed 3 nights at Mad Hostel with my wife in a twin room with bathroom. Excellent value at around €45 / night. The location is perfect, in a quiet street very close to restaurants and bars in Plaza Santa Ana and easy access to all the main tourist attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The only negatives...our room... More

I stayed in early Feb for a night, and apparently the hostel had just reopened after some vibrant renovations. That would explain why it seemed like it was just my friend, our 3 roomies and I staying in the entire place, cause we did not run into anyone else during our stay! The room keys were extremely fiddly to use,... More

Spent a week in Spain with a weekend in Madrid, spent one night here and couldn't fault it. Went with a group of friends from a college group, common room has a nice young vibe with music playing but not blaring. Went out in the night but managed to sleep peacefully with no disruptions! Nice shower/bathroom. Breakfast included in the... More

I stayed at Mad Hostel for 5 nights and there are good and bad points. On the positive side, it is close to everything that you need and the roof top terrace is great. The drinking games are fun and the pub crawl was really good too. I met some nice people and paid 18 euro a night which was... More

This place for the two of us cost about 44 euro/night to share a room with six other people. When we returned to Madrid later we got a 3 start hotel for 50. The two are no where near comparable. Mad hostel is loud, hot and uncomfortable. The only benefit is the location which is walking distance to the nightlife... More

Don't expect to meet anyone in the common room as nobody hangs out there is no bar and the kitchen is so tiny that they dont even have a toaster!! They advertise that many activities are held in the hostel but that is a lie. You have to go to their sister hostel for any activities at all. The showers... More

Super cheap, so don't expect anything and I guess then it will be OK. I'd rather pay a little bit more and go somewhere else the next time.

We spent 2 nights here and enjoyed our stay very much. It is mostly a hostel for young people but we had no issues with noise. I enjoyed the rooftop terrace. Room was very basic but clean and comfortable. I had a bit of trouble with the door key but then again I can be technologically challenged at times. Everything... More
