The room is small, but it was perfect for my needs and I was only there to sleep. Very friendly and helpful staff. Hostal Alfaro is centrally located and easy walking distance to all the sights I wanted to visit.
Thank you for a terrific stay.

This hotel was very close to everything. Quietly located in a central place with easy walking distance to everywhere we wanted to go. There is not any parking close by, unless you use a parking garage. Plenty of great places to fine nearby. The room was very simple but clean and very comfortable.

Nice spot near Santa Ana and Sol, with lots of attractions and dining near by. Staff is friendly and nice, Wifi connection is great. Can be noisy, but not so bad especially considering the location!
Overall, I had a great stay

We really enjoyed in Madrid downtown.
This hostel is easy to access to downtown but they don’t have hair dryer in the room.

the staff was very friendly and helpful, everything was clean and the facilities correspond to the low price but everything you need is there. Finding a parking space is quite difficult and the nearby parking garage is relatively expensive
