Muy buena ubicación, a unos minutos de la estación de metro Gran Vía. El cuarto aunque muy chico es muy cómodo y limpio.

Property was a cool old building that unfortunately was lacking some maintenance!
Room was OK and it was clean but things needed repairs.
Signage could be better at the door explaining where check in was located.
The young lady who checked us in was very pleasant and kind!
Cheers and Gracia!

Simple, affordable hotel, conveniently located.
The single room is very compact (I'd go as far as saying the photos are misleading), with windows facing the building's ventilation shaft. Although the bed is a bit uncomfortable, the room provides all necessary amenities, and the hostel is conveniently located. It offers good value for the cost.

I really enjoyed my stay here. It’s a great location. Not all the staff speaks English, but some do. They are nice, and were very helpful whenever I had questions. I really liked my stay in Madrid, and Hostal La Fontana helped me enjoy everything!

Very good location but neighborhood not so good. Prostitutes hanging out near entrance at night. The staff was very nice and helpful. Room was tiny And straight out a 1930's movie but ok for a private room in city center.

Gay Madrid !
Roxanna and Ouda were very kind and helpful to us. Very central location to Chueca area, bars, restaurants and shopping. A few minutes to Gran Via where the HopOn HopOff bus stops.

Loved the hotel. The staff was lovely. The rooms were clean. The only problema was that breakfast started too late so we often couldnot take adventage of it because we had to leave early for tourist activities.

Great location, friendly staff. Breakfast could have been better but still OK. All museums, and places to see were in walking distance. Tapas bars, stores for shopping everywhere. My room was a bit small but enough for solo travelers
