El Monte Tours

If you're travelling on a budget I would recommend this accommodation. I stayed in a single room with shared bathroom. The accommodation was clean and comfortable, though the room was very small - just enough room for a single bed and very small bedside table ... but it did have a TV. The shared bathroom was clean with plenty of hot water and good water pressure, though the shower cubicle is very small. As a lone traveller I felt safe there (5th floor and plenty of locked doors). My only gripe with the room was that it had no window to the outside - there was a 'window' which opened to the stairwell/lift and there was a lot of noise from this area until quite late at night. The location is good - a 5-10 minute walk to Gran Via, about 20 minute walk to the Plaza Mayor - with quite a few places to eat and small shops for snacks and beverages close by. Staff were friendly, though I didn't really require their services as only there for a few days.

Amazing place to stay

The stay here was very nice from start to finish. Communication was prompt, check-in and out was easy. German and Jose were excellent hosts. Was concerned at first being on the ground floor facing the street thinking it would be noisy but it was very quiet and slept well. The space was comfortable, very clean, nicely decorated. Many restaurants, bars, attractions were all close by within walking distance. Bakery on the corner and a supermarket right around the corner. Excellent WiFi and a/c. Definitely enjoyed my stay here and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. My only minor suggestions would be to have a large complimentary water bottle upon arrival and a roll of paper towels for the kitchen. Thank you German and Jose for a great stay!
