The location is great, close to plaza mayor (200m) and closer to the metro station (20m). The room for 3 people was really big.

The shower is too small, but not a problem at all.
Great attention, I will come back

Great Location

Stayed in this hotel in May 2013. The location is great, right next to the metro station Tirso de Molina and a few minutes from the Puerta del Sol by foot.
The room was spacious and clean, even though the double bed was actuallt two single beds pulled together. But no harm done there... The bathroom was quite small but it was alright for just a couple of nights, with a good hot water shower. It's a good value for money spot!
The staff was always very helpful and nice, although we had some trouble in their working schedule. We wanted to check out early, leave our bag with them so we could explore the city until we had to leave later on (which we did, and we appreciate the attention) but there was no one at the hostal when we left at 9h. We couldn't find any information about the working hours but we expected that there would be a recepcionist. We ended up going out for breakfast and returned an hour later, when we rang the bell again and finally got an answer.
Aside from that, the place was great. It would be wise to contact via e-mail the hostal and set up all the meeting times in advance so everything goes smooth and there is no worry, like we faced.

Good value for money and location

First it is important to notice that a hostal in Madrid apparently is not a place for backpackers only. It does not have those large rooms for 16 persons. It is more a B&B kind of place with doubles and triples only. This hostal is run by an Irish/American couple, which comes in handy re. the communication. Very nice and warm people. 
The rooms are on the second floor of an old appartement building. Authentic atmosphere. There are no additional hotel services (no breakfast for instance) but that is not a problem. To the contrary. You are in the heart of the city, you can eat and drink everywhere. Nevertheless there is a kitchen in which you can cook and which has a fridge. 
I booked a room (nr 3, twinbeds, airconditioned) which was located in the front of the building overlooking the square. Really nice, with a balcony. In the weekends at night a bit noisy but with closed windows no problem. The room was very clean and well equipped. The shower was very good (always warm and sufficient water). The beds are OK. No five star quality but you can't expect that for these prices.
The subway station is on the square. Ideal. If you travel from Barajas airport you can buy  
a one way ticket for 5€. Don't forget to select "line 1, Tirso de Molina" in the ticketmachine. Then take the 8 to Nuevos Ministerios, then the 10 (direction Puerta del Sur) to Tribunal and then the 1 (direction Valdecarros) to Tirso de Molina. This trip only takes 35 minutes.
At sundays you can visit the (overrated) Rastro market which is just around the corner. All other main features (like the musea, the palace and the plaza mayor) are within walking distance. Nevertheless I visited Madrid together with my son specifically for a Real Madrid game. A great experience. The subway takes you there in a quarter of an hour.
Hostal Tirso Plaza is a very nice place on a great location and for a unbeattable price.

great budget hotel on fantastic location

Central location, fine staff and a basic but clean room. You can see all the main attractions by foot and the metro is on the square. Close to nice restaurants.
The free WIFI works perfect and there is a kitchen that you can use to make coffee,thee and a fridge for cold drinks.

Good, central and clean

The outside can look a bit off putting and at first confusing to enter, you do so by the second floor, but this is a good inexpensive base to stay. Situated on a bustling square with a small flower Market in front of it.
Rooms are small but spotlessly clean, comfortable beds,  good shower rooms, communal  guest kitchen. No frills but an excellent situation re  access to transport,  museums, theatre restaurants, bars  shopping etc. and good Wifi connection
It does have a downside as the rooms on the front of the hosal  can be very noisy indeed this can continue until late into the night.
One footnote about Madrid  do take care with handbags wallets  etc. pickpockets  are prevelant and work in groups.
