The hotel is in good condition and the location is central to Madrid. However, not very quiet place with club music playing until to 3 AM and random noises of other guess. Easy to hear people. Finally, hotels.com mislead me with false information pertaining to the hotel amenities.

Really great experience, rooms were amazing and location is excellent and service great. Only comment is the noise outside, but they provided us with ear plugs which is great. Can’t complain too much about the noise given that the hotel is downtown and the location is amazing but just to note it can get loud on weekends.

Great location. Close to restaurants and easily walkable to everything. Nice second bedroom for privacy. Our kitchen in the hotel room was functional and had what we needed. The patio wasn't much, but with better weather we might have used it more. Note that there is a good bit of noise nightly: loud, thumping music until 2am from a dance club or something nearby, and friendly kitchen staff banter and dishes clattering from the restaurant just downstairs that echoes up the courtyard from one floor below. Comfortable beds. Communication and contactless check-in were great. We would stay here again.

The single bedroom apartment with the sofa bed was incredibly spacious. Importantly, there was a laundry machine that proved exceptionally helpful. We arrived a bit early before check in so the big lockers in the lobby area were also very helpful. One locker fit two full check in sized pieces of luggage. The AC worked really well even in the Madrid summer heat. The location is walking distance from the palace, the Prado, retiro Park. There is a great, little supermarket next door that kept us stocked. With that said, there are a couple notable drawbacks to the location if you’re not specifically there for the night life. It’s literally surrounded by night clubs so keep that in mind. We were on the second floor, and the bass from the clubs woke us up early every morning. The clubs keep going to 6:00 AM at least Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning. I believe they call it quits at 4:00 AM Monday morning. It’s kind of gross but also efficient that every morning after the clubs shut down the city literally hoses down the streets. We had the kids sharing the sofa bed though, and the sound of the bass didn’t carry into that room. Given the attractions that are in walking distance, the place gets mobbed, especially around plaza del Sol, which is right around the corner. Picture a Times Square level of people. The Sonder staff communicated very quickly with us over the app when we needed toilet paper and clean towels. Overall, a positive experience with some caveats.

Very convenient location, central, walkable to many sites. Staff very kind and helpful. The room was facing other rooms. Bed not comfortable, neither were the pillows. Budget amenities and needed fixing. Considering all these, the price was too high. In the morning when we left the hotel on our fourth day the road infront of the bldg was sooo dirty… The road cleaners started cleaning after 9 am.

Mediocre stay….
Overall, it was not a great experience. They have an online check-in process that was very complicated and time-consuming and wasted like five hours of our time. Additionally, it was a very loud hotel and everything was noisy and we woke up all night….lastly they gave us gross stained towels. The location was central & walkable which was the most redeeming quality.

If you don’t mind having zero staff on site, then you’ll love this place. The check-in process was so awful I wanted to scream at the guy on the phone who was in Barcelona and trying so hard to help. There are no physical keys so you have to check in on line using their horribly cumbersome website and then wait for an email to give you the codes. You have to register every guest before you can get the codes, and that means entering passport info multiple times. So frustrating. On the upside we were grateful to have central air conditioning during one of the hottest weeks of the summer, and the kitchenette was useful. But we had to wait 2 days for more toilet paper. Unacceptable.

Excellent location, many good restaurants and shopping places nearby, walking distance to many tourist attractions. No need to even take the metro. The front desk provides a map and detailed explanations of locations of places to visit, very helpful. I did not give a perfect score on conditions because the electronic key cards did not work and we only got one metal key for the 4 of us. But it worked out fine.

Dear Eva, we are super grateful for your amazing comments and evaluation of our services! Most of our apartments have the keycard locks, and other have the regular keys (same as at home). The thing about these special security keys is that if they get lost it could cost the customer up to 250€ to replace them, that's why we only give the guests one key and always suggest them to leave them at our Front Desk which is open 24h. Either way, we are glad that it worked out fine! Please receive the kindest regards from our staff and have a wonderful 2020!
