The curtains on the bed was torn a bit, that needs to be fixed, but that is the only minor thing, everything else was perfect

Wonderful hostel, great location, the red velvet curtains basically block out 100% of light. Great common facilities.

“An Oasis in Central Madrid.”
Being a hostel we had very little expectation of the place. But we were amazingly surprised as soon as we got there. The place is an Oasis in the centre of Madrid. The place is vibrant and chic. The staff are amazing. And breakfast for just 10 euros is highly recommended 👌 Our private double room was comfortable and very quiet. The bar/restaurant is good, you get a free welcome drink plus 10% off on the food and drink. They also do free walking tours and pub crawls.

“Good stay”
Very close to the centre. Near the metro. The room is nice, i feel pretty safe. Great idea to have the sink outside instead of inside the bathroom. There is room cleaning everyday

“Beautiful stay at The Central House Lavapies in the centre of Madrid.”
This hostel is beautiful, it's in a central position, I was in a double room with private bathroom with a bug shower. The room was spacious and nice, with a balcony. Breakfast was wonderful and included in the room's rate. Also the restaurant is very nice and all the staff is very friendly.

“Fantastic!”
The hostel was amazing and the stuff is incredibly kind and helping! I had a little problem with one of the guests in my room and they immediately helped me. Rooms are big enough and very clean, they also have organized activities everyday to socialize with other people. Everything was amazing, I absolutely recommend it!
