Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I wish you had a better experience, it is feedback like this that we learn from and use to improve. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it's apparent in this case that we fell short. If you give us a chance to earn back your trust, I can assure you that we will do our best to give you the great hotel experience that so many of our guests have grown so fond of.Sincerely,
They allowed me to check in early because they could tell that I was extremely tired from my long flight. I will be booking them again in my next trip to Madrid.

Hello, it is a pleasure for us to see that our service is on the right track and to find this rating of 10/10, so we hope that you will choose us again as your preferred hostel another time. We wish you the best in your next trips and adventures.
I had a very comfortable and spacious room with two beds. The price was reasonable, and I didn't mind the shared bathroom. It's worth noting that the rooms in the front of the building can be a tad noisy with traffic from the street, but it wasn't too bad. My biggest concern was that the internet seemed slow and unreliable, constantly cutting out on both of my phones and my laptop, so I had to go to a co-working space down the block in order to get any work done.

Hi Robert, Thank you very much for your comment and score, we hope in a next stay in Madrid you will also choose us as your preferred hostel. We wish you the best in your next trips and adventures.
Das Check-In ging suoer, unser Privat Zimmer war sehr sauber und nicht lärmig. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und die Angestellten sehr freundlich. Leider hatte es kein Kühlschrank und keine Küche, was in einem Hostel zu erwarten wäre.

Es ist uns eine Freude, Ihre Punktzahl zu erhalten. Wir hoffen, Sie bei einem zukünftigen Aufenthalt zu sehen. Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich für Safestay Madrid entschieden haben.
A great hostel for the price in a perfect area. Footsteps from the subway and waking distance to most major attractions. I was surprised they even made up my room during the day. Disappointed no soap or cups provided in the room and the air conditioning could not be controlled by me in my room even though I was in a private room. Despite this fact, it only got too cold for me once.

Buenos días Irina,
Gracias por compartir con nosotros tu puntuación sobre como te sentiste durante tu estancia. Nos hubiera encantado poder ver que fue de 10 pero, en este caso, no ha podido ser por lo que desde la dirección hemos querido responderte personalmente.
Pedirte disculpas si algo no te gustó pero, nos hubiera gustado poder ver qué fue lo que realmente no te gustó ya que así no podemos ponerle solución a nada. Esperamos que nos des otra oportunidad.
Un cordial saludo,
Ana
I spent two nights at Safestay. I arrived at about 2 am and was glad that they still let me check into my room. The man that I checked in with was thorough. Checking out, however, there was a very rude employee. Luckily, I was saved by another person working at the front desk.

Rooms were clean, staff was friendly. Wifi was very poor in the rooms I got, and can get noisy if you get a room that faces the street. But it's a hostel so there'd be noise after midnight.

Meh, just okay, I’ve stayed at better hostels. I booked a 4 bed ensuite, I thought it was going to be an all male room, but it was a mixed one, that was nowhere when I made my booking. The hostel was kind of dirty. You have to pay extra 2 euros for a towel plus a 5 deposit, and also extra 5 deposit for the room.

The place was great. It was my first hostel experience and it couldn’t have been better ! The place was full of young energy with so many cool places to hangout. They have a rooftop bar, movie room, swings inside the building, so many scenic areas for pictures.

This was my first solo trip and first time trying a hostel and I really enjoyed it. The hostel felt very safe as only ppl with access cards only could get in the room and it was really clean and never had to wait in line for showers or anything. The best part was its location , easy access to everything . The ppl were very helpful and made me very comfortable . Overall I loved it.

Walls thin as paper and a door that squeaks every 3 minutes through the wall from someone opening it. The bunk beds are unstable and shake at the slightest movement so the prick in the bunk under mine kept me up all night with every movement, not to mention the noise of the door, other guests and the street. At this point I could have saved the money and had a better 17h layover at the airport than here.

I was told I was getting a single room, to then find it meant a bed in a room. Was completely misled.
