Good hotel located in a peaceful neighborhood
For some reason, the impression I got (off) the internet when selecting hotels in Madrid and the actual hotel differs but not really in bad way. Just different from what I thought it would be.
Nonetheless, a pretty decent accommodation situated in a very peaceful neighborhood in Madrid. Well, almost. Our room was next to the school but thankfully the only noise really comes around 0815hrs to 0830hrs when the kids gather for school. But even so, they don't exactly disturb the peace.
Hotel is situated near several eateries, as well as, 5mins walk from the nearest Madrid hop on/off bus stop, 2 very beautiful, albeit small, attractions (Temple Debod - stunning during sunset, and Museo Cerralbo). It is also barely 5mins walk from the nearest metro station (Plaza de España) and one of the central shopping/food areas of Madrid, Gran Via. Without traffic, it is about 20mins taxi drive from the Madrid Puerta de Atocha train station - where we alighted from Barcelona via Renfe.
We had 3 beds squeezed in the room hence it was smaller that it seems but otherwise, comfortable. Decent "cooking" area though toilets a little bit small and dark.
Good service (especially during our check-in/out) and welcoming reception/concierge.Overall, good location and quiet place to stay!
