Really clean and new hostel in a good neighborhood of Madrid. The beds are comfortable and the showers are hot. They also organize events daily and have free dinner regularly. There’s a spacious common area so it was very easy to make friends here. All the workers were super friendly and helpful, including the volunteers and cleaning staff. Thanks to Gabo especially, who drew out a map of the city for me and answered all my questions during my stay.
