It was very clean and comfortable. The lack of air-conditioning was a bit of an issue as there was a heat wave in Madrid at the time, but the fan helped me get a good night's sleep. The staff was very friendly and even let me use their computer to book my next flight as mine had just broken down. Chueca is a very lively area with lots of restaurants and shops, and all of central Madrid is within walking distance. Definitely a good place to stay if one is looking for clean, central, affordable, no-frills accommodation.
