Lovely hotel, easy to walm to most of the areas in madrid and right next to the metro, which made getting around and to and from the airport really easy, rooftop bar great with lovely views, especially at sunset, pool more for a quick dip and those who want to instagram their experience than for proper swimming but nice to cool off. Staff really welcoming and friendly. Breakfast also good, and with again lovely views.

Property is in a great location. Staff was great, we checked in late at night. Misleading about amenities like coffee and snacks (all in vending machines, not free.) No staff at the bar by the pool from 12:00-14:00 while we were visiting. We were placed in a room on the first floor and it was extremely noisy & bright being so close to the street.

Monica

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The hotel is in a safe, convenient location — great for shopping, public transportation, and walking around the city. However, the room was disappointing: the bed was uncomfortable, there was noticeable dust throughout (including on the eucalyptus plant), and the bathroom had an unpleasant smell upon arrival with stains on the shower floor and walls. Breakfast was also underwhelming, with limited options and overly oily fried eggs despite the staff’s friendly service. On a positive note, the gifts provided (tote bag, sandals, and wine) were a thoughtful and rare touch that we truly appreciated.
