    As noted, the elevator needs work

    The place is in a terrific location and it appears to have been recently constructed/renovated in an older building. The shower deserves a mention, because it was one of the first in a place at this price level that had a good drain so watered and spill all over the floor. Little things help. The elevator on the other hand is quite old with a balky door that should be fixed. Most impressive was when I asked the guy on duty who was standing at the street entrance where I could get a bottle of water. He told me to wait and he ran off down the street toward the Carrefour convenience store. I mean really ran full tilt! How often does anybody else experience that reaction? The guy would not even take money from me when I offered to pay for it, as a well should, and even declined my offer to buy him a beer – no no he said he was working. From my various travels, acts of exceptional service – both on the good and the bad side – tend to be remembered. I’ll remember this guy and come back to this hotel again. But please don’t pay much attention to what I say and other travelers should go to other places so this one doesn’t get too popular and the prices shoot up. Then I will kick myself for having written this note praising them.

    Reception was not always there when you needed them in the times they said so when you needed something half the time they were out. Not a big deal. But if you needed help asap it would be a worry. I also prefer a swipe card and you need to use a key. Just remember to lock the door when you leave and go in because I didnt realise till a few nights that I wasn't locking my door properly thinking it was automatic. No fault of owner/company though I guess. Just my negligence.

    Comfortable bed. Great air-conditioning. Also the perfect location right in the heart of Madrid for anything you need. Staff were lovely and helpful. Everything was clean :). Rooms were a little small but good enough for a solo Traveller! And esspecially for the price.

    It was a lot smaller than what we had expected. No kettle, no iron, even with an ironing board. Quite noisy when neighbours came home at night. Very very small, hard to move with 2 people in the room.

    The room was clean.

    Great location and good for the price in an expensive city.

    The room smelt a bit musty on entry, but we were able to air it by opening the window of course. The coating of bathroom door was damaged and so wouldn't slide closed easily all the time. The shower was fine once I screwed the shower head on properly although the extractor fan didn't seem to do a lot and the room steamed up very quickly.

    It was a well presented room with a small fridge. The beds were comfortable and there was everything we needed. The location is very good with lots of shops along the street and a short walk from many good restaurants and places to visit.

    The reception is open from 10am to 6pm. There is a code for the main entrance then use the keycard to enter the hotel after reception hours The lift only works when the doors are securely shut. Sometimes, it doesn't work or breaks down! Not enough shelves & hangers in the wardrobe. Not eco- friendly:tiny sachets of gel/ shampoo provided To have the room cleaned, you have to slide the flap on the door to 'green'

    The central location to the centre: about 5 mins' walk to Puerta del Sol a bustling square. The helpful and friendly receptionists but services end at 6pm. The colourful & cheerful reception/ entrance to the hotel which is on the first floor. There are 4 other hostals in the block! Being on the first floor helps when the lift breaks down. It happened when we checked out. The receptionist took our luggage down the stairs to the ground floor! The hotel is clean: well done, housekeeping!

    The room decor was very nice with light blue and white. The floors are also white. The entrance is a massive Gate followed a lift, both of which are pre world war era, but perfectly functional.Once you are inside, every thing is of new construction. The hotel and reception are on second floor. Reception is open from 10 AM to 6 PM. There after, contact night watchman who has a room behind the lift. We are a senior couple and found the hotel was exceptional with value for money. There was ac, room heater and locker. One small suggestion. The area of cupboard above the locker is not of any use. Providing 2 shelves there will be of great use to clients. Providing a kettle would also be helpful Regards T T Job Bangalore,India July 24
