2. Is there a kitchen that guests can use?
No, sorry. There is a good reason for us not having a kitchen. In many of the hostels in which we have stayed, we have noticed that a shared kitchen can cause bad feeling between guests, and we don''''t want any bad feeling at Cat's Hostel.
Apart from the fact that we genuinely felt that a kitchen was not essential, it is not at all expensive to eat in Madrid. Every bar will offer you a free snack with your beer.
Our staff will tell you about the best and least expensive places to eat, but good food is available in virtually the whole of Madrid.

3. Do I need to bring sheets or a sleeping bag?
That is a very good question. At Cat's, we provide all the bedclothes you need (sheets free) as part of the price of your bed.
If necessary, we can also provide you with a towel (limited number), although in that case we will ask you for a small deposit, which will be returned when you leave the hostel.

4. Is smoking allowed in the hostel? Do you sell tobacco?
You can not smoke anywhere in the hostel. we operate a very strict no-smoking policy everywhere. The hostel has a central heating and air-conditioning system, and smoking in the chill-out area results in smoke ending up in the bedrooms.. The hostel does not sell tobacco of any kind.

No drugs of any kind may be consumed in Cat's. Anyone found taking drugs in the hostel will be expelled immediately and refused entry thereafter, notwithstanding any legal action that may ensue. Consumption and possession of small amounts for personal use does not constitute a crime in Spain, but consumption in public places does. Severe penalties apply to dealing.

7. Is there somewhere in the rooms to leave suitcases? What about the day of departure?
Each guest will find a cupboard with a lock in their room, where they can leave their belongings. The cupboards are generally secure, but we will not take responsibility for objects of value left in them. There is a safe at reception where you can leave any objects and documents which you want us to look after, free of charge.
You may only leave your belongings in the left-luggage facility on the day of your departure and you must retrieve them before 10 p.m. on the same day for security reasons. Any luggage not removed by 10 p.m. may be examined by our staff. In the case of them being unable to open it, the police will be asked to treat it as abandoned luggage and it may thus be destroyed. If that is the case, Cat's shall not be liable for any damages or losses which may arise.
If you fail to remove your luggage and Cat's considers it to be safe, it will be stored. However, a daily storage cost will be incurred, which must be paid in order to retrieve your belongings.
