Friendly staff, clean room, firm bed (perfect for me, too firm for my roommate) amazing showerhead! Close to a metro station and Retiro park. Good breakfast with excellent variety. Lost 1 star as some of the items looked as if they'd been out for a while, and there was no gym.

Its nice hotel, great helpful staff specially Christina!🙏 a few feet away from subway, bus and grocery. Mostly remodeled and clean. We got this hotel last minute since our Airb&b was not as expected. So we booked this hotel 30 min before checking in. They had to switch our room to get us a double bed after the first night. First room was perfect exept it has two twin bed. Second night we went to another room with double bed, hiw ever this room was not yet remodeled and had some minor cosmetics with the caulking on the bath tube and floor tiles. But overall nice, clean and convenient. Its worth the price, just ask for complete remodeled room.

Awesome Hotel in Madrid. Very pleasant stay we had for 4 days. Staff was great, from the check in to the end check out. Excellent breakfast with awesome staff. Cleaness of the rooms, room service was great daily. Everything was excellent except the air conditioning - we couldn’t have control of it except on and off. It was a bit annoying blowing right on you during the night - the way vents were installed. Other than that - we had a very good experience in this hotel thought out 4 days. Thank you Catalonia front desk and back staff.
