This was basically a hostel at premium price due to the great location. Staff was great though, and breakfast at the restaurant was delicious. But the room was poor, outdated, and with bad lighting.

The apartment is well located, very close to main attractions and Sol Metro station. It is in an alley way full of restaurants and bars so it is noisy all day til 3am. The noise starts back at 6am when the restaurants start changing the barrels and putting the tables back outside. The apartment itself is clean, lovely and helpful staff. There is a lift but you have to go on a flight of stairs before you get in it. It was adequate for our one night stay. The aircon is good and bathroom has powerful shower and toiletries included.

This was one of the most exceptional stays I’ve had in my entire life. We got a small apartment with two bedrooms, four beds total. There was a fridge and microwave and sink and one bathroom. The AC worked and it was extremely quiet, even with the window open, despite being on a busy pedestrian street. The woman who checked us in was incredibly nice, spoke English, and helped us into our room early. Checkout was lovely too and the free breakfast buffet was very memorable. We’re used to free breakfasts in the US, and this was so much better than that. A buffet of local meats, cheeses, fruits, veggies and eggs. There was a selection of toasts that were just outstanding. The little room where you eat was a real restaurant, with antique clocks hanging everywhere. Our server was so nice and, as almost all coffee in Madrid is, the coffee was just absolutely perfect. The street that the apartments are on is lively, narrow and quaint, exactly the kind of thing I wanted to see when visiting Spain. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you’re coming to experience something authentic, this is it. I can only imagine the less gleaming reviews are from folks who wanted something cookie cutter. If you have a larger group or family, and want to be in the heart of a thriving part of Madrid, absolutely stay here!

Property is in a great location, staff are friendly, room is very clean other than grout areas in shower, and the AC cranks once they get it working. However more like a 2 star than 3 star. At check in they did the same euro to dollar conversion a previous review stated, even though I specifically said to charge in euros. So add 5% to the room rate for comparison. Had to get the front desk to get the AC working, but they did and it worked well. Elevator is on half-floors: So you walk up a flight of stairs to the elevator, go to your floor, then walk up another flight of stairs to where your room is. Odd but not that big a deal for most. Towels are made out of recycled material, guessing plastic bottles because they do not absorb water. Very annoying. Hot water is hit and miss. Front desk suggests just wait 15 minutes or not shower during peak times. 15 minutes is a long wait if you are standing wet in the shower waiting to rinse the soap off. Breakfast was fine though pretty basic. Our room faced the street, so it was a little noisy until about midnight. Not terrible but audible. If the price was right, I would probably stay there again, which is why I did not give it a 1 rating. Other than the hydrophobic towels and hot water issue, nothing was terrible and the location/staff were great.
