Hotel Hostal Abaaly (Madrid, Spain)

Most guests state that the location is conveniently located to see many of the attractions in the city. Many say that the most interesting points in the city are within easy walking distance.

The variety of restaurants and tapas give guests the opportunity to try many prepared foods while the food market increases food choices.  There are many tapas where small plates of foods are served. Guests eat a lot of small servings instead of a typical meal. A number of guests believe that going out for tapas and drinks is an essential part of the Madrid experience.

A number of guests mention that the rooms are larger than in most hostels while the rates are comparable. The location makes it an even better value, according to several guests.

Some guests say that the rooms are on the third floor and no lift is available. A few guests say carrying luggage can be a struggle.

Several guests mention that the market is open until late at night and opens early in the morning, making it noisy at times. A handful of guests say that the noise from people talking or snoring inside can also be disruptive to sleep. Thin walls and people walking on the stairs allow sounds to carry into some rooms.

Many guests who stay during the hot months of summer say that the rooms can be uncomfortably warm. There is no air conditioning and some rooms have only indoor windows. A few guests were quick to point out that fans were available.
