The hotel is on the Gran Via , an excellent location. Our room is spacious and great condition with balcony. We were able to see st. Patrick parade on the Gram Via from our balcony and window ( down on the street) . Room is very clean and comfortable. Wash room is great too . We like our room and vacation very much. Breakfast is 24€ per person, but nearby has a lot of eateries!

The staff was very polite and helpful, the building interior while a bit dated was very clean. The outside was also in good shape. The entrance is a bit hectic with people and also floods very easily when it rains on the side walk. Overall the location is very convenient to attractions and I would stay there again.

Property is clean but too old that reflect on the condition of the rooms. Haven’t been updated recently. Staff were very pleasant. The are where is located makes it very difficult for a taxi pick up or drop up. My uber driver had to leave me next corner as he couldn’t park on the Main Street to avoid a ticket.
