- “ Lovely place, central location and amazing staff. Home food cooked every day and costing just a few euros per meal. Not that many events as I expected from previous reviews but still I had a great time. ”

- “ The first guy at the front desk was excellent: gave me great restaurant recommendations, took the time to show me directions to certain destinations, and answered all my questions. A group of us just had took issue with one of the other front desk guys who showed us to a bar and then got hammered and started harrassing all the girls in our group to the point we had to run away from him before he got violent. Otherwise, facilities great, churros amazing, location perfect. ”

- “ The Way Hostel is located quite good: near to the Plaza Mayor or Puerta del Sol (as well as the metro station) - and also in walking distance to the Prado Museum or the Parque de Retiro. The facilities are good. It is not that unique or cosy but nevertheless a good place to stay! Very great and helpful staff! ”

- “ This was a pretty good hostel for the most part, but I have a specific complaint. The hostelworld listing says "Parking", and since I was driving around Spain, I chose this hostel because, well, hostel parking is pretty damn rare in centrally located hostels in Spain. But "Parking" in this case only means "there is a parking lot down the street that costs 27 euro per day". I mean, of course there's an expensive parkade nearby, duh. I could have parked elsewhere and saved money the first night. ”

- “ Hot showers doesn't work often. If you want additional programs like excursion to Toledo etc, this hostel could be a good choice. However, it may not be the best choice for those who just want to take a rest in the hostel, since people tend to come inside at dawn, still chatting as if they were still in the hallway. ”

- “ Nice hostel, I liked the atmosphere. It is very clean, the lodge is comfortable, staff is very helpful, enough bathrooms. You can rent a towel for 1€. Very good location, just few steps from the metro station and 3 blocks from Plaza Mayor. ”

- “ When I stept in i was delighted. The atmosphere was great, and the recepcionist was very nice and helpul. Very easy going people who try to make everything easy for you. But the most i liked, is that you realize that the owner really take care of everything, bc they understand that travellers like to feel like at home everywhere they go. They undertand that even for one night, a hostel, is for one night your home. So, muchas felicidades y gracias. Volveré!!! ”

- “ The Way hostel was nice in that they alert people to different activities around Madrid, like free walking tours, tango lessons, and shuttle to Toledo. They also had a flamenco show, but be warned it may not be what you expect from a flamenco show you would see in a bar or restaurant. Also, the beds were a little rough on my back. Breakfast was a little underwhelming as well. Overall, my stay was very nice. ”

- “ Location is great. Shower towels were NOT included (1euro each). The kitchen is pretty good for cooking, and LIDL is around the corner. The breakfast is far from special (only cereal, white bread, jam, GIANT nutella). The Internet is available but quite slow. My bed appeared to be slept in when I arrived, with messy sheets. I slept well b/c it's on a quiet street. Also met some cool people in hostel and traveled with them. The staff was friendly but awkward at times. ”

- “ There really is no negative things I could say, the hostel was amazing. Obviously more of a party hostel than a quiet one. I'll definitely come back. ”
