I have been in Spain as an American Pilgrim on the Camino (Francés) de Santiago for 50 days and 50 nights starting on April 4, 2024. After initially staying 2 nights at a BnB in Madrid and the following night at a nice hotel in Pamplona, I stayed the remaining 47 nights in albergues, monasteries, hostels, and finally the mega-hostel Generator Madrid for 2 nights. All of these communal accommodations win my heart hands down with no comparison to the standard luxury hotel. The metropolitan atmosphere and sheer size of Generator Madrid (> 500 beds) does not diminish the underlying hospitality that was at the core of nearly all of the Camino albergues. Note that the medieval pilgrims were largely provided lodging, food, and care by monasteries initially, and then also by community buildings called “Hospitales” in Spanish. I would not be surprised if the English word “hospitality” is derived from these Old World albergues that were called Hospitales. The main attendant at an albergue is called an “Hospitalero.” At Generator Madrid, the service has been excellent. I arrived for check-in at 1 AM after 6-1/2 hours of bus and then high-speed train travel from Finisterre to Santiago to Madrid. The 24/7 reception desk was attended by a bilingual receptionist, Jesús, who was muy amable y animado, even at 2 AM. I was the last guest to leave my 8-bed dormitory room at 10:15 AM, and the cafeteria staff, Rushyl and Jiana, were very welcoming, and did not rush me as I did not arrive for breakfast until 10:45 AM. Breakfast service ends at 11 AM. The next time I am traveling in a metropolis anywhere in the world, I will seek out a hostel like Generator. I hope my wife will be open to this communal alternative.

Location was perfect 👌🏼 Right in the middle of the city, it was easy to move around the city and almost everything on walking distance. My family and I enjoyed the breakfast buffet; basic things but the essential. The lift was very convenient. We asked for transport from the hotel to MAD airport, taxi arrived in 5 minutes with a fixed price of €33; host solved it in a minute and she was very efficient. The room was a bit packed for 4 people, but we only used it to sleep, no biggie. Beds were comfortable, even the bunk bed. Highly recommended!

Generator Hostel is a very straightforward, super well organised Hostel right in the city center. In a female dorm of 8, you get a bed and a locker, there is space to put your things on either a coat hanger or a shelf, and there is a shared toilet+sink+shower in the room. That's a perfect basis! You can also buy everything you need at the reception: flipflops, earplugs, showergel, which came in super handy!

Location is superb, a few steps away from the Gran via and just a few blocks away from Plaza España, Plaza Mayor, Mercado de San Miguel and several metro stations too. Everything looks clean and new. Shared areas (especially the bar at the rooftop) are very nice.

A really cool and funky hostel! I was really impressed with the aesthetics of the accommodation. The roof top bar was amazing! Great drinks and a lovely place to spend the evening. Brilliant location, walking distance to so many restaurants and beauty spots.
