What guests think
At Hostel 165, travellers praise low prices, consistent cleanliness, and friendly staff, while noting drawbacks like squeaky mattresses and noisy dorms, a small kitchen with too few bathrooms, sometimes slow Wi‑Fi or hot water, and a not‑central but well‑connected location.
Rooms often have air conditioning, and some guests value the secure feel and budget-friendly setup. A few report staff speaking mainly Spanish, towel deposits or cash-only extras, and occasional overbooking or checkout confusion. Expect a clean, low-cost stay with simple amenities and busy dorm dynamics.

Location
Convenient for transport, with Conde de Casal metro very close and easy access to Retiro and the airport; some consider it far from the historic center. Overall well connected rather than central.
