Hostal Abitum Madrid

I had another reservation for 5 days which they cancelled without telling me leaving me without a hotel and I had to find another hotel. The only reason I don’t give a lower rate is because they at least were kind to keep my lugage while I found another hotel

Extremely tiny room and bathroom, to the point that there is no place available to put a big suitcase on, other than completely closed and standing inside the (small) cupboard. I was aware there is almost no street indications of the hotel because it is part of a large building, so keep a good eye to find it. Rates are high for what it offers, but still within the most affordable accommodation rates in Madrid for such a great location.

It was a little hard to find. Location is not bad, but still not very near the main part of the city. But it is good for the money you pay. The receptionist didn’t speak a word of English and we couldn’t communicate at all, which I find not good at all considering it’s Madrid (touristic spot). When I called to ask how to enter, he just kept saying that he doesn’t speak English. Luckily, I had internet and I could use my translator. It says that it’s soundproof but you can literally hear someone pass by your door or talk in the hallway.

The card payment machine didn't work but we found a solution paying by Bizum, thanks to another guest helping the desk guy. Some Japanese guests had it a bit more complicated, not helped by limited English on both sides. I speak Spanish,, so, no problem. Not a major problem.

very noisy inside, hard to sleep of noising from neighbors rooms.
