Alcalá Apart hotel
Good location and good service. However, the property is falling apart. Furnishings are outdated and filthy. Couch had sweat stains and other deep stains. Rug full of dirt and stains. Windowsills full of dust and grime. Curtains show dark areas full of dirt. Awful smell. Do not recommend.

Staff were excellent and helpful - very friendly. Rooms were a little tired and worn, and the breakfast was similarly a little ordinary.
