Good affordable option in the center of Madrid! AC worked great, the room was clean and decent size. Bathroom and shower was good, plenty of towels. The street scene outside was a bit sketchy but overall no problems. Some street noise during the night but nothing terrible. Loved the balcony!

La localización del hotel es buena, cerca de todo, pero está en una calle donde hay prostitutas y travestis a toda hora del día, lo cual provoca inseguridad. El staff del front desk no es nada amable, el de limpieza si. El cuarto es diminuto, cómodo únicamente si es solo una persona a pesar de que lo ofertan como habitación doble.

Está súper cerca a la gran vía. Literal a menos de una cuadra, pero de noche da un poco de miedo porque hay fiestas por la zona. No hay ruido en el hotel lo que es muy bueno, y el staff súper bueno porque nos dieron tips y organizaron el taxi

the area around the hotel was dirty and probably with prostitutes. It's not the hotel's fault, but still, it's an issue. of course, I book a 3 star hotel, so I know that it can't be perfect. The hotel staff was excellent.
