Property Description

Generator Madrid is a design hotel-hostel located just steps from the Grand Via in the centre of the city. Guests can choose from shared dorms to private rooms, offering something for everyone. Complete with 24-hour reception, free wifi, restaurant and one of the best rooftop bars in the city, Generator is a fun and affordable choice in Madrid.

After the Spanish Civil War ended, the area became much more commercially oriented, and the building was transformed into a parking lot with a gas station on the main level. The area has several representative buildings of the different times, with great historical and cultural value.

The only downside to this place was that it was more of a less social hotel vibe. Other than that, it was clean, friendly, and as expected. Great shower in the private room.

Very dark and dungey feeling, more upscale of a hostel for a solo traveller was a little hard to meet people (maybe because it’s winter time) but found it more of a business type hostel not terrible just lonely feeling lol

More of a hotel than hostel. The day of check in they were hosting a kid’s football tournament sign up. Kids everywhere.

I thought this place was just okay. The rooms are very crowded and cramped, and I didn't feel as at home as other places. Tiny sink, super hard to shower. The en-suite setup is not it. Ended up moving early, and they were super nice and understanding about that.

Stayed in room 405 and the plumbing wasn’t ideal. Toilet blocked several times and the shower had a foul sour smell. Ok value but by the cleaning was at a much lower standard than other generator hostels I’ve stayed at. Requested my friend was in the same room as me. This wasn’t done as the “room was full” although two people checked into the dorm later than my friend? Advise you to get a roll of toilet paper from reception and keep it in your bunk as our room ran out DAILY
