If you are traveling to Madrid we will highly recommend this place. It is true European hospitality with smiles all around. Very clean, rooms are great, service is amazing, breakfast is full of options and the staff ready to help and serve. We walked everywhere from the hotel and taxi always available in front of the hotel if you need one. BTW what we learned is ride sharing and taxi costs in Spain are the same, so take the taxi. Not to mention the price of this hotel is very reasonable compared to others. We stayed for a week
