Room was clean and pleasant, but one night soap and shampoo were not replaced. External door to the property had a broken lock on the third day, so we had to call for entry, which was difficult. These were minor concerns. Overall, the property was nice and the staff friendly.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room smelled like mold and the toilet had the paper across to show it was cleaned but when the lid was lifted there was urine and toilet paper in the toilet so obviously not cleaned. I told the staff I could not stay there with mold and they refused to give me a refund for 3 of the 5 nights. I have never had to leave a place before and angry they won’t provide a refund.

Excellent location, two blocks from Gran Vía. Good food on this small street, not expensive. Important to us: there is an elevator! Building is safe, closed for the night. Lots of small, useful stores right next to the building, including grocery stores. Very convenient. Uber from there to the Golden Triangle museums is just about 10 Euros. Staff very nice. They even gave me a card to use in the subway, I just needed to add some money to it. Gave it back for future costumers.

Great Location with Safety Concerns

The hotel is located near Gran Via and both metro & commuter train stations, so there were a lot of great dining and shopping options available. The private suite was small with a small refrigerator, but no microwave. Also, the bathroom sink was way too small and inconvenient to use. The owner and staff were very friendly. There's one incident worth mentioning. At the check-in, the owner told us to just leave our keys on the reception window if we're checking out before 0900, which we did. However, when we went down stairs, the main door of building was locked from the inside and you needed the key to open that door to get out of the building. This could've been a dangerous situation if there was a fire in the building and people are trapped because they couldn't get out of the building.

Good budget friendly place

If you want a place to sleep and are planing on being on the city a lot and not in the room then this is the place. It is small but works if you are on a budget. The only complain is the the street is loud up until 3-4am so it is a little difficult to get rest. They provide earplugs to help and of course this is not their fault, it’s just the neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay and it helped us keep the budget available for other activities.
