Very noisy at night. Didn’t feel safe at night given all the movement (prostitutes) on the street where the property is located. It’s close to Gran Vía metro station but I won’t recommend to stay there.

Excellent location, clean and comfortable.

What an excellent gem of a location. Fantastic, comfortable, very clean, and did I say very convenient? Literally a minute away from the metro station and so near tourist and restaurant options. It couldn't be a better overall combination. Simply fantastic. It's weird shaped with an odd entrance from a small alley, but that's just how the area is and I think similar to other places. The hotel itself is on the 3rd floor and each room is sort of it's own shape but that's part of the charm. It's very well implemented, very efficient. Simply a great deal overall. Will stay again without a doubt.

The place is cozy, and the location is unbeatable, a few steps from Gran Via. The staff was very attentive and helpful. They were also accommodating. They allowed me to drop off my luggage early prior to checking in, and then again during check out. Recommendation: Check the internet service, which was spotty at times.

Good location, attached to a brothel

Location was excellent. The room did not have a refrigerator or a safe. The rest of the facilities were good in this good size room with a balcony. The Hotel is located, attached to, a brothel. There were always two or three prostitutes right outside the front door. They would make eye contact with you but did not make you feel too uncomfortable.

This property is in the heart of Madrid yet it is not clean at all and we noticed bed bugs as soon as we laid in bed. There were also some bugs in the bathroom and the sheets had not been changed. There were hairs and small dust from probably the previous stays.
