Bites Motel

This room was a lot of fun. We did the non-horror version because one member of our group does not like jump scares, but it was still a good experience. There was one puzzle with a slight glitch, and another that was late to react even though we already had it solved, but other than that the gameplay was good! I recommend this room to everyone!

As a disclaimer, I'm not a huge horror fan. Good GM performance, but he was a little overeager on giving hints and not giving us time to cook. Large set (the street is a particularly nice touch that gives a real sense of being in a different world), puzzles were OK.

Bites Motel 🚿 was a really interesting experience and definitely stood out from the usual escape rooms. The set design and atmosphere were beautiful, creating a world that was easy to get pulled into. While the structure felt a bit different from what I expected from an escape room, we still had a lot of fun exploring it. The puzzles had a mix of great moments and some less memorable ones, but the overall experience was carried by the amazing atmosphere and the fantastic job from the game master. A unique room that is still high on my list 🔪

Do this for the set design, the performance, the atmosphere and for the fact that you can’t really find a experience like this. Like more rooms that are on the scarier side the puzzle are not complex. It’s a guided expedience and a interaction with the bates/ Gien story.

Bites Motel has the bones of something interesting. It is a Psycho-inspired twist with a genuinely impressive exterior environment and flashes of strong acting, particularly in the setup sequences. When it works, you can see what it's reaching for. The problem is that it too often doesn't work, and the reasons are structural. Feedback on completed puzzles is inconsistent (sometimes absent, sometimes so delayed that you're not sure whether you've done something or nothing). In a genre where forward momentum is everything, that uncertainty is corrosive. The story takes some unexplained left turns that feel less like intrigue and more like gaps in the script. And the space is simply too large for one GM to manage alone. The resulting delays and coverage gaps are noticeable and pull you out of the experience at the wrong moments. There are genuine highlights: a few puzzles that stand out as genuinely novel, committed performances in the early sequences, and an exterior that sets expectations higher than the interior consistently meets. The Psycho framing is a fun concept and the core premise is charming. Ultimately this is a room that works in moments rather than as a whole. Worth a look if you're a horror completionist or you love the source material, but go in with calibrated expectations.

This is about the best room we’ve done in Madrid this trip and it is well worth all the accolades. The setting is incredible and feels like you are actually there. From the very beginning to the very end we were completely immersed in the film with perfect puzzles to go with it and such a creative build. It’s not horror but it’s very scary, highly highly recommended. Thank you to our perfect host Diego who stayed in character perfectly and again made it such a superb experience

Bites Motel was a great nod to Bates. Bite The Fly graciously allowed us to start nearly an hour late following a train delay, and were super accommodating since we arrived with luggage in tow. The set was definitely a standout, the whole motel scene was wonderfully done. It could definitely use some sprucing up, but we still had a good experience. Not super scary, more tension, but still some exciting tests of courage and solo moments. 😱

The set was very impressive - a motel built inside a building. The room is based on the movie Psycho, so if you know the film there are some nice references. The acting was great with some tension and laughs, and the horror level was not too high for me. I rated the room itself, but our experience was unique. The room was FREEZING (we wore our jackets the whole time), and they accidentally gave us the wrong mode (the more scary mode) - the GM even admitted after, but blamed it on the fact he only slept 4 hours. For me, the horror level was still ok, but one team member was not having it. As an experience, this was in the top of my weekend, and I would definitely recommend it for enthusiasts visiting Madrid (but skip Tao Massage).

this set was HUGE. We signed up for the non scary version but our host turned it into medium scary which.. was definitely more fun and memorable but 3/4 of us were going psycho because of how scary it was. Was forces to go on a solo mission which I realllly did not want to do but looking back. it made such a good memory. Biggest escape room I’ve ever been to and definitely the most fun. This was very different from the escape room I’ve done in the US though, because there was basically no timer and it was just about the experience. Definitely recommend to others!
