Solo stay

The only problem was the thin walls between the walls. One night there was a noisy person in the room next to mine, and that made it difficult to sleep.

Solo stay

I really enjoyed my stay at Hostal Ballesta in Madrid. One thing I really liked was the room with computers, almost like a small workspace. It was very handy and a great idea, as I have not really seen that in a hotel before. My double room was very nice, spacious and comfortable, with a good desk and a smart TV, which made it easy to relax and also get things done. The location was also excellent, just a short walk from Gran Vía, with plenty of food places, bars, shops and metro links nearby. The only thing I did not like was that the same workspace room also had a communal fridge and microwave for guests to store and heat food. I think this should ideally be in a separate room, as it takes away from the workspace feel. Overall, a very good stay in a great location, with a nice room and helpful facilities.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hostal and cannot recommend it enough! The Location: You truly couldn't ask for a better spot. It is incredibly central, making it easy to walk to major attractions, local tapas bars, and metro stations. Everything Madrid has to offer is right on your doorstep. The Room: Spotlessly clean and well-maintained. It’s clear that the housekeeping staff takes great pride in their work, as everything was pristine from the moment I walked in. The Staff & Service: The absolute highlight of my stay. The staff here are incredibly warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. To top it all off, they were kind enough to accommodate an early check-in for me completely free of charge, which was amazing after a long journey. If you are looking for a clean, perfectly located place to stay in Madrid with a team that genuinely cares about their guests, this is it. I will definitely be back!

O.hotel fica bem localizado em uma região onde vc tem comércio, bares e restaurantes além de fácil acesso a pé para os principais pontos turísticos de Madri. O quarto é confortável e o.banheiro foi reformado recentemente. O hotel ê simples e não oferece serviços, mas para quem busca uma boa localização e ótimo custo benefício eu recomendo.
