지하철역이 근처고, 마드리드 왕궁 앞이지만 주거 지역이라 시끄럽지 않았던게 매우 좋았습니다. 공간이 작은편이라 짐이 좀 많으면 불편하겠지만, 화장실이나 침대 모두 청결하고 편안했습니다. 가격도 합리적이라 숙박을 추천합니다.

I did not go. Never intended to go back there. I don't eat food that I threw up. Racists, biaised, classless, ill-mannered people like these should not have any business dealing with other races. I reported them and nothing was checked for my safety when you thought I will return there? Except for the front entrance pee smelling odor, the waiting area seemed alright. I did not see the roms. This review is for the staff. Especially the heavy set rude one that was stuffing her face in a whole in the back; I am glad you can do more with my money.
