Madrid to fit my needs, your help please

[Dov of the Galilee]

I will arrive by train in the morning on this Friday. That Sunday I must be at the airport by 0800. I have a backpack and a large bag with no wheels.

I want to enjoy Madrid, in
accommodation before sundown and no nightmare stories getting to the airport.
Cost is a factor.
What is my best option?

So you are staying in Madrid 2 nights?
I'm not sure I understand the question, sorry?
How to move your luggage? Buy a cheap folding luggage trolley?

Two nights in Madrid.

I intend to sight see in the city center but I need to fly out on Sunday morning.

I am looking for guidance as to where I should be based

I hear good things here about this hostal close to the airport.
Maybe use this as your base and then take public transport to the city centre?

If this is more than budgeted then maybe compare by leaving your heavy luggage in a locker at airport and use cheaper accomodation in the old town?
