Hostel Space Capsule is a capsule hostel on Calle del Olvido, one of the main streets of Madrid's Chinatown in the Usera district. Here the bunks are pod-style capsules: single capsules on two levels, each with a glowing porthole, which give a little more privacy while keeping the hostel atmosphere. It suits solo travellers, couples and anyone looking for a practical, well-connected base.
There are two ways to stay: a single capsule in a mixed dorm on the ground floor, overlooking an inner courtyard, or a spacious double room with city views, where two people share a capsule with a double bed. The bathrooms, with showers, are shared, and bed linen and towels are included.
The common areas include a TV lounge, a dining area with microwave, fridge and kettle, and lockers; WiFi is free. Usera metro (L6) is 200 m away, Almendrales (L3), with direct trains to Sol, 500 m away, and Madrid Río 300 m.

There is a desk and seating area, lockers for your belongings, a self-service laundry and free WiFi throughout the building.
The signature of Hostel Space Capsule is its pod-style capsules: white units stacked on two levels, each with a glowing porthole and soft ambient lighting inside. They offer the privacy of a capsule hotel with the sociable spirit of a hostel. You can book a single capsule in the mixed dorm or, in the spacious double room with city views, a capsule with a double bed for two.
