The location was great; within walking distance to just about everything. Even when we took the metro for convenience we could have walked. The room was clean and efficiently set up, and the balcony was nice. The shower was powerful with immediately hot water and within a fully enclosed stall. We loved the young folks who worked the front desk. They were always cheerful and helpful. The breakfast was good. There's a wonderful soup and salad restaurant right next door that we enjoyed.

Location is very convenient. But be aware, the Metro station Anton Martin doesn’t have any lift. There are probably 3 flights of stairs to reach the ground level. There are three lines of bus that go to Atocha train station . The hotel luggage storage is flexible. The breakfast is good value! There are fresh fruits every day. The kitchen lady is very friendly , as well as the reception staff. The Anton Martin Market nearby is a bit of a letdown to us. The restaurant food doesn’t look enticing to us.

Ideally located within walking distance of old Madrid. The room, although small was clean and had the added bonus of a mini fridge and safe. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was efficient and quiet. Although on a fairly busy road, there was no sound with the balcony door closed. There is a shop 2 minutes away that sells bottles of water. It is possible to walk from the train station, but there is a hill to climb in the heat. The breakfast offered a good assortment. Overall good value for money

Stayed here by myself in mid-October (travelling for a conference; stayed 5 nights). The location of this hotel is great as it is very central and you can walk everywhere. 🚇 Metro options are also available nearby 👍🏻 My room was big with a double bed, a big wardrobe, air conditioning, and private bathroom with a shower. I had a fridge too, and the hotel staff provided me with an iron when I asked. I had breakfast included in the fee and I was happy with the food selection (you get the same selection every morning). My window was facing the inner courtyard so there was no noise from the street at all 👌🏻 Overall, I am satisfied with my stay. The price was also decent compared to some other hotels I’ve seen in Madrid that don’t necessarily provide breakfast but charge >£200 a night! I can recommend this hotel. Also, for clarity, it is NOT a hostel - the name was confusing when I saw it first 😂 but it is definitely not a hostel, it’s a hotel.

Location is perfect, in Atocha street, in the center of the city, close to many city attractions like Plaza Mayor, Retiro park, San Miguel mercado, Royal palace, Gran Via, etc. and not too far from Plaza Espanya, everything is in walking distance 15-30 mins. The room was very clean and spacious, even though we had kinder bed in it and we travelled with toddler. There is always someone on the reception, and everyone was very polite and helpful. We asked for child bed and water kettle for our baby and we got it immediately. The breakfast is nice, like in most hotels, nothing special but it was tasty and always fresh. We spent 6 nights in this hotel and were really happy with it. On our last day we could leave our bags in locked room while we were strolling around the city waiting for the ride to the airport.

All services were satisfying: reception, housekeeping, breakfast, luggage storage. Location is great, vivid, and close to city center with no noise from street outside. Food was great. Me and my family, 4 in total, really enjoyed our stay, especially the kids enjoyed the jumping on the bed before sleeping, they were confy. As a hostel it is super great option and for sure I would book it again

I go to Madrid frequently and I’ve often walked by the Hostal Cervelo, which is well and centrally located on Calle Atocha. So on this last-minute solo trip I stayed here and it turned out to be great. It’s modestly priced but has everything you need. The rooms are not huge but they’re certainly not tiny, like some hostales, and they are simple but modern and well equipped…good desk, useful closet/drawers, plenty of lighting and outlets for charging, and a nice TV. While it’s on a noisy, busy street, the whole place was quiet and clean, and the staff was super pleasant, efficient and helpful. Wifi was good. And on top of that, the breakfast selection was very good! But there are lots of restaurants and bars in the neighborhood if you want to go out for breakfast, and certainly plenty of choices for the rest of your meals.

The hotel is very well located in the city centre and the room was cleaned daily.

We were greeted by a very pleasant, helpful receptionist who provided a map and marked places of interest, museums etc on it for us. The hostal is very central, with everything in walking distance. There are bars and shops close by. Our room was small but clean,comfortable and quiet.
