El Pasaje

Getting to The hotel was a nightmare as no information was provided in advance. Guides and directions should have been emailed when booking was confirmed. No car access and parking is a far walk. Then trying to communicate and ask for help with staff was difficult. Tried calling and then said he’d send info over via text instead of telling us on the phone so we drove two 25 min laps around Barcelona bc I it’s so difficult to get to where you need to go. Room was so small, sheets and towels weren’t changed and we didn’t even get extra toilet paper.

It was not what we saw online. We did not get any sleep because the neighborhood was filled with people partying past 5am and the room was not soundproof. When we got to our hostel door there was a very large mound of smelly trash that looked like a fire hazard. Accommodations were sub-par.

We’re very happy with the facilities and service. Breakfast price was fair. Location excellent with sights and restaurants very close by. Would definitely stay here again!

It was a great place to stay, The only thing is that the door of the hotel was not working so it wasn't so safe.

Location, location, location. Frequent travellers, looking for comfort, cleanliness and the all important location. El Pasaje delivered on all. If you are in the city to see and experience the city then this if for you. Firm, comfortable bed, aircon, mini-fridge, safe, wifi, great shower. Everything you need. Within moments from the Hostal you have vibrant bars and restaurants but from our 'city' room, at the back of the property, we had undisturbed sleep. Within comfortable walking distance of all the major sights. Easy check in at Victoria 4, over the road. Staff friendly and helpful (very good English speaking, apologies for our lack of Spanish). Most helpful when we had a pre-booked taxi issue, nothing to do with the hotel, but the gentleman on reception (sorry, didn't get his name) was great at speaking to the driver etc for us. Gracias. If you want a swanky room with a great view, then look elsewhere, but if you want great value for money, clean, comfortable, in the heart of Madrid, then we would recommend this hostal.

Great welcome from Adrian, he took the time to take us to the door and explained everything about the city. We loved the room shower and AC. Walking distance to everywhere in Madrid.

It was near everything and staff was available and present; the hotel is simple but it's ok. I did not like breakfast.

Perfect for travelers not looking to spend a ton but still want privacy. Room is small but it's all you need. Hotel staff are friendly and helpful, just across the street. Hostel was quiet and clean, basic amenities but what you would expect at a hostel. Close to so many things, we walked everywhere. Plenty of bars within a block. I would stay again.
