Gwenda
While the room was very small, the bathroom was modern and roomy. Breakfast was good. The lift was very slow - but there was a lift! Location excellent.
Christine
Clean room, but the entrance and check in process genuinely seems so sketchy. The walls are ridiculously thin but for the price and area the room is great and clean.
Lourdes Tantas
pros: clean and spotless room, friendly staff, good area.
cons: as people mentioned you can hear voices from the neighbor, small room, simple breakfast, they don't answer the phone.

Everything was walkable
Hamdija
Came into our room and our AC did not work. I go up to the front desk and ask for someone to check it out and he said there will be someone later that will come through. No one came at all and it was 95 degrees outside with no AC. Then i went up the next day and asked once again and he comes down to our room and says he turned it on and it was never turned on at all. Most useless workers Ive ever seen in my life especially after asking twice. I would not book here in the middle of the summer because your AC might not work!

The property is in a great location, but the buildings elevator was not working. There is also not \"front desk\" at the ground floor you have to go to the 7th floor for that and the hotel carmen is in the 4th floor.
Bobby
The location was great and the room was good but nothing spectacular. The elevator to the 4th floor wasn’t working so I had to take it to the 5th floor and walk down a flight. The check in was on a different floor. The bed and room were ok and the shower was manageable.

Staff was apparently trained to lie to customer
No air conditioning at hotel and they continued to say they would come right up to room to turn it on
Well we checked out and no air.

Great location
Great location next to metro station and in heart of city. Most attractions are walkable and staff are friendly but mainly speak Spanish. Room was very comfortable and fridge in room was very useful. Would recommend staying here.
ROBERTO
Habitación recién remodelada, tiene problemas de insonorización, sabemos que el elevador es un problema por lo que en hora pico mejor usar escaleras, desayuno recomendable, ahora no pude tener vista hacia la Plaza Callao porque esta en remodelación de fachada. Lo mejor del lugar su ubicación!
JORGE
Desayuno excelente para comenzar diariamente. Lo único es que para subir al piso 4 que es donde están las habitaciones o para subir al 7 que es donde está la recepción o para subir al 10º piso que es donde está el restaurante, solo hay un elevador y solo caben 4 personas. Si no tienes problema por esperar hasta que desocupen y tengas la suerte de subir es una buena opción. Céntrico, limpio, habitación cómoda para dormir.
Sergio
No início assusta um pouco, pois o prédio é antigo, está em reforma e não tem uma boa aparência quando entra, mas a parte dos quartos é moderna e limpa, o quarto é pequeno mas bem completo, confortável, as janelas vedam bastante o som, mas nã 100% pois a via é muito movimentada. Ótima localização, fizemos tudo a pé. O café da manhã é bem gostoso e tem várias opções, tem uma vista linda. Recomendo.

Un “hostal que te cobra (8) OCHO EUROS por guardar la maleta de equipaje por 1 hora.
El check-out es a las 11 y quisimos bajar a tomar una café, comprendiendo la hora de salida lo hicimos correcto y salimos; cuando quisimos dejar la maleta se nos cobro (8) OCHO EUROS.
Y como último detalle NO dan factura de esto y solo debe ser en efectivo.
El robo se cuenta solo.

Lo único malo es el elevador, es pequeño, lento y viejo. Subimos a pie 7 pisos para check in, mismo que bajamos. Optamos por que subiera uno de nosotros con todas las maletas, el resto por la escalera. Muchos con el mismo problema. Luego una noche se metieron dos vagabundos a dormir en la escalera, no se querían mover. Avisamos para que los sacaran.

Hotel in posizione centrale e comodissima per visitare la città. Camere molto piccole ma funzionali, bagno altrettanto piccolo ma pratico.
Le camere sono rumorosissime, senza nessun tipo di insonorizzazione. Durante il ns. soggiorno stavano imbiancando alcune stanze e le parti comuni. I lavori venivano eseguiti fino a tarda notte e a causa della mancata insonorizzazione è stato difficile riposare.

Habitaciones bastante modernas con limpieza justita, es un gran inconveniente que llegues a la habitación y lo primero que veas son unos buenos lamparones marrones en las colchas de las camas, luego las sábanas estaban limpias, eso sí, el apartamento estaba bastante chulo y la habitación estaba bien en amplitud y también en insonorización con la calle, aunque estando en pleno centro siempre se escucha algo como es lógico, en general no está mal, pero con cosas a mejorar como las que comento... Los espacios comunes ya es otro cantar, las escaleras y el ascensor dan pena verlos, por viejos \"que es lo de menos\" y por sucios sobre todo. No han limpiado la escalera en los 4 días de estancia, los escalones llenos de churretones y parece que no importa a nadie, eso muy, muy mal.
Estela
Solo merece la pena por la ubicación
La habitación sucia. El wc sucio y con un horrible olor a cañerías que inundaba toda la habitación. Cuando lo dijimos en recepción nos dijeron que teníamos que haber avisado antes para decirle ellos al de mantenimiento. Y POR QUE NO en el momento de nuestra queja?? No entendimos la respuesta.
La escalera de acceso al hostal el carmen SUPER sucia.
El ascensor, solo hay uno para un montón de hostales en el mismo portal y la terraza Sky44, super lento y os podéis imaginar que super transitado. Con lo cual bajábamos y subíamos por la escalera.
En fin, horrible
Eso sí, muy bien situado.

Camere tutte decenti tranne la numero 408, da evitare assolutamente.
Manca uno specchio intero ma per il resto è accettabile, per la posizione e il rapporto qualità prezzo mi sento di consigliarlo.

El hostal está muy bien. Lo mejor que tiene sin duda es la ubicación en la Gran Vía, gran punto turístico y de acceso caminando a otros tantos puntos turísticos y muy buen acceso al transporte público. Como desventajas encontré el ascensor. Hay uno solo, con capacidad máxima 4 personas. Se hace casi imposible acceder al mismo, mucha espera. La otra desventaja es las paredes, son muy muy finas se escucha de todo de habitaciones vecinas. La habitación es super pequeña. Como ventaja es que están hechas a nuevo. Saludos.
