The hostal has a lift, making the upper-floor rooms accessible without stairs. Some rooms face a quiet interior courtyard, reducing street noise.

The hostal does not serve breakfast. However, the surrounding streets offer dozens of sit-down cafés serving Spanish breakfast (churros, toast, coffee) and full restaurants for lunch and dinner. The Antón Martín market provides fresh groceries and prepared food, while Mercado San Miguel (15-20 minutes on foot) is a popular food market.
