Disappointing
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 4 nights
We were 3 persons and we asked for a room with balcony. They didn't give us the room with balcony but they said to give us a superior and biggest room anyway. It was not big room. The room was very little. Only one wardrobe! Cleanig apparently was ok. But not when I was looking for a power point to charge my phone next to the bed . I moved the bedside table and there was a split toothpick and much dust, that means they didn't clean in depth. Impossible to find power point!!in 2019 I think is not admissible do not have a power point next to the bed! Very old room!Moreover we asked for three normal single beds, and they gave us only two normal beds. The third one was an unconfortable sofa bed! At the end I would like to back in that hotel, but only for the position, not for anything more!Disappointed!
The only positive thing is the position of the Hotel. All the most important attractions are around the Gran Via where the hotel is placed.

1. Breakfast was taken as an added supplement. It was excellent. 2. The Location is excellent - so near the city centre and so near the Metro. 3. Rooms seemed a bit small for a 4* Hotel so the price was relatively a bit high.

So apparently airconditioning doesnt work during this time of the year at the hotel and no advisory was indicated in the booking stage so imagine my surprise when i went in and try to adjust the temp and the reply to me was no aircon and when i asked to be moved the staff kept saying not possible ao then i got upset amd told him i really need to be moved only after continued stress on the phone did they move me. It was just not a good experience though the hotel is lovely and location was good.
