Our hosts were very polite despite our lack of spanish-speaking skills. Wi fi was difficult to establish at first, but on our third day, we were able to access it easily from our room. Our hosts offered us an inside room, but recommended a balcony room, which was nice & sunny. It was nice to have fresh air with the... More

Good location, clean, and the owners of both the Dulcinea and Pension Corbero over the road were very friendly and helpful. You even got a strange little safebox in the room for valuables. We would stay here again without hesitation. From memory, the Corbero was a little cheaper but only by a few euros. More

Hostal Dulcinea is in a great location - near several metro stops and walking distance to Prado museum, Atocha railway station and many restaurants. The room was small, but not cramped and included A/C. It was quiet, well-kept and inexpensive. We would definitely go back! More

Absolutely perfect apartment (belonging to the hostal Dulcinea) in Madrid. Close to via Prado and Atocha train station. The staff is extremely nice and helpful, cleanliness is immaculate. The apartment has a kitchen equipped with everything you might need. There is an elevator, nice neighborhood. Highly recommended, very good value for money. More

Booked this hostal based on the location as visiting friends in Madrid and wanted to be close to metro and nightlife, couldn't have picked a better location. I'm baffled by the reviews stating the owner was rude, we found them friendly and welcoming and although they didn't speak English we managed to communicate with them in my little Spanish and...

The rooms were small but clean. The guy who was in charge was very rude and nosy. He was always watching us as we came and went out. He "yelled" at my adult children when they spoke in the halls. The location is good but with all options in the area would not stay again or recommend it to others. More

The place is has an excellent location. The rooms are tiny and clean but the guy who was at the desk was nosy and rude. The first nights went well but our last night there someone decided to rearrange furniture - the floor above. We could not sleep, it was bad. More

It was utterly average. Good sized room, bed, bathroom, lock box. You can leave your bags for a while on checkout day. Very good location once you get your bearings. (We had some trouble finding it.) Quick walk to Prado, Retiro, Plazas to the west, and metro stations. It is very far from the airport, but for 2 euros I... More

Hostal Dulcinea was a good choice for a first night in Madrid. It took about 45 minutes to get to via the Metro from the airport and, despite 2 train changes and a brief walk from the Anton Martin metro stop, it was easy to find. The room was small (as are most in this class in Europe) but clean... More
