Property is just about okay. Nothing great. Rooms are really small for 2 . However the private bathroom is nice . Property has a breakfast facility in the basement. Really expensive for the facilities on offer. The biggest advantage - you are right in the heart of the city ie Sol. Lots of dining options nearby. Very Well connected stay option. All places of visit within walkable distance

It is in a great central location, in a pedestrian only street full of shops and restaurants. It is in an old building, totally renovated. The buffet breakfast is in a cave-like basement. Really cool! Great food!

Excellent: friendly and educated staff, breakfast was superb at the loveliest place, location is spot on, cleanliness. Good: feels safe. Very bad: elevator did not work (a secondary maintenance elevator was enabled, we preferred the stairs). Shower got clogged and the room flooded. Air conditioner worked well, but vent leaked pretty bad. Overall: nice looking hotel, right at Madrid’s heart. A vintage building which was fascinating by itself, but must keep their facilities up to date.

The location is great! I just wish the reception staff would have been a little more helpful when it came to figuring out the parking and driving rules in Barcelona. They live there and should inform the guests since the rules are a bit unusual.

The hotel is located on a pedestrian street which is a plus. However, the property is run down and has little to no amenities other than a good breakfast available for a price. There is only one elevator which makes getting to your floor difficult especially if carrying larger luggage. The rooms were clean. Hotel is not worth the price and should be downgraded to a two star rating.

Its a very conveniently located hotel, that is the best part. Breakfast is good. The room for three was spacious. The only thing is, I wish the AC was colder in the guest room especially when is 100 fahrenheit outside. The staff was super friendly.

Excellent location in Madrid centro, walkable, close to Plaza del Sol and Plaza Mayor. Very clean and excellent customer service from staff. A couple of things that need attention and improvement. The noise, you can hear everything from your bedroom. Personnel vacuuming woke us up almost everyday and they clean early in the morning. Not great for people on holidays. The elevator clearly says that received unfavorable score in the last inspection. We left with the impression that an accident can happen anytime.

Great Hotel In Perfect Location

Double Room - 8/10. Clean. Good size. Faced courtyard, so nice and quiet. A/C didn’t seem to work, but was bearable without. Would be nightmare in hot summer months. Bathroom - 8/10. Clean. Good size. Great shower, but door seal no good, so bath mat got soaked every time. Bed - 10/10. Very comfy. WiFi - 10/10. Very good. No issues. Breakfast - 10/10. Great choice and great quality. Staff - 10/10. ALL the staff were helpful, polite and professional. Hotel - 8/10. Perfect location. As well as the above niggles, the room key cards never worked first time (even after getting them replaced). And guessing this is a pet-friendly hotel, which is ok unless you’re near a yappy dog. Would still recommend though.
