Almudena Cemetery

If you're travelling on a budget I would recommend this accommodation. I stayed in a single room with shared bathroom. The accommodation was clean and comfortable, though the room was very small - just enough room for a single bed and very small bedside table ... but it did have a TV. The shared bathroom was clean with plenty of hot water and good water pressure, though the shower cubicle is very small. As a lone traveller I felt safe there (5th floor and plenty of locked doors). My only gripe with the room was that it had no window to the outside - there was a 'window' which opened to the stairwell/lift and there was a lot of noise from this area until quite late at night. The location is good - a 5-10 minute walk to Gran Via, about 20 minute walk to the Plaza Mayor - with quite a few places to eat and small shops for snacks and beverages close by. Staff were friendly, though I didn't really require their services as only there for a few days.

Beautifully appointed older hotel. Breakfast is quite nice as is afternoon coffee although the gratis afternoon coffee applies only to cafe americano I quickly learned. The location is great with lots going on near the hotel. Landmark destinations such as The Prado and Retiro Park are less than a half hour walk. My room overlooked Gran Via so it was fun to people watch from my balcony. And the windows had electronically controlled shutters that eliminated all outside light and noise at night. Great place if you want to be in the center of all the activity.

Nice clean space staff friendly and caring
