The hotel is ideally located in the city center of Madrid, close to all the main sites. The rooms are modern and spacious with a bathroom, and the service is efficient. However, the dining options are limited and could be improved. The facilities are well-maintained, offering good value for money.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were modern and well-equipped, with a small window to the narrow yard. The balcony added a nice touch to the room, and it comfortably accommodated three people. The service was top-notch, with excellent housekeeping and an efficient airport shuttle. The location was convenient, just a stone's throw away from the historic city center, although the street could be a bit sketchy at times. The dining experience was a delight, especially with the included homemade pastries. The facilities were impressive, offering everything one might need during their stay. Overall, a great value for money with some minor drawbacks.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and modern, and the balcony was a nice touch. The service was top-notch, and the location couldn't be better. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the narrow yard view from my small window wasn't ideal.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel; the rooms were modern and well-equipped with a small window to a narrow yard, which was a unique touch for a 3-bedroom stay. However, the street outside was a bit sketchy. The service was friendly, the location convenient but not ideal, and the dining was great with seasonal vegetables.

The hotel offers cozy rooms with modern facilities and balconies, although some rooms have small windows overlooking a narrow yard. The service was efficient, with helpful housekeeping and tour assistance available. Its prime location in the heart of Madrid makes it convenient for exploring the city, although it's not in an area known for supermarkets nearby. The dining experience, while offering tasty French fries, lacks diversity. Overall, the facilities are well-equipped and suitable for a comfortable stay.
