Perfect location down a nonchalant alley, near a metro station. The place is relaxed, more hotelish than hostel nice small room, with television. Nothing spectacular, but clean, no bed bugs, nice staff if you know spanish--well, we never spoke english to them, but they were nice enough. Withing walking distance of Plaza del sol and old square.

This is a neat little hostal that is very well located (a few steps from Plaza de Santa Ana and a 10 minute walk from Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor).
