Thank you for a truly lovely stay, the accommodation was very comfortable, even though the street outside can get very busy at night it was very quiet in the room. Definitely recommend as the location is great, really close to metros so you can easily get around without too much hassle and also close to a couple of small supermarkets. Thank you again we would love to return :)

the property they put us tries to apprar fancy with the art deco and jacuzzi but none of all that matters when you: -the furniture smells like piss. dirty sofa/furniture stains all over. lots of cracks or open spaces in the bathroom ceiling. makes you question security/privacy - the shower is in the jacuzzi which is kind of slippery and there are some jacuzzi water outlet right underneath the shower head. - the laundry wasnt there but it was listed as one of the amenities (kind of like false advertising imho) I can honestly put in more but this property is not worth more than the time I already put in.

Beware - Not a 4 star stay
This is not a four-star facility. The apartments are associated with the 4 star hotel up the street but that is it. No doorman. 2 euro to store your luggage in a locker off the entryway. No toiletries of any kind. When we called to ask front desk for hand soap was told it was only for hotel guests. The sofa was made of foam, full of stains, and falling apart. It was covered with a sheet to hide its defects. It was a frat house stay not 4 stars.

Construction noise
The apartment would have been fine except that there was construction beneath our room which woke us up too early. Also, across the street a homeless man sat on his perch every morning screaming at the world, starting at 7am. The homeless man is one thing, but management should have told us about the construction before we booked. When we complained about the noise, we were told that it would cost and additional 45e to move. The smart move for any business would have been to offer us a break or move us to another place at no additional cost. We would have never booked the apt if we knew of the construction or the homeless man.This was my first attempt at booking this way, and will probably be my last. We loved Madrid (and Spain), but this in no way spoiled our trip - just the first two nights. But, unfortunately, I cannot recommend this space.

Amazing place, affordable, lovely staff, great location but LOUD all night long. My aunt did not sleep at all in 2 nights. We both loved it but motorcycles, garbage trucks, construction, elevators, etc. We just too loud for us to go back. I so wish they could help that.

Beautiful apartment living for family stay
We arrived late at night for our stay and was a bit confused about gaining entry as taxi dropped outside apartment entry but 24/7 reception was across the road on other side of the road and up the street. Once that was sorted, all staff were very helpful and apartment very well presented and beds very comfy. Full kitchen facilities, living area and bathroom with separate main bedroom and two additional twin beds for kids.

Terrible place and Terrible staff
It's not an apartment or even suite, I wish there was an option to give this hotel negative number!!! The rooms are smaller than a regular hotel rooms. When I talked to staff about it they told me I was lucky if I had better rooms in the other hotels in Europe. They were going to charge me extra night because I didn't want to stay there anymore, and they call the COPS. After the police arrived I explained the situation and Police told the staff that I am right, and I don't have to pay the extra night. I only stayed one night.
That's what they called a suite

Here for a 2nd time!
This is the 2nd time we stayed at ApartaSuites Satellite by Abalú. We stayed there 3 days LAST summer (July 2015) before our cruise and enjoyed our stay, so we came back this year! The accommodations are nice, large room with 3 single beds. The breakfast was nice also but not included. WiFi is spotty. Kitchenette was handy and there is a market right next door. It's a nice family hotel. Hotel staff is excellent! We needed another day at the hotel, but Hotels.com did not have any availability here (hotels only alot so many rooms to outside booking sites) but a call from the US straight to the front desk and we were able to secure that last nights lodgings without having to change rooms. Luggage room is available and VERY SECURE for late departures. If we ever have a 3rd go in Barcelona we would stay again

Stayed here with parents and children in February 2015, 1st apartment was spacious but bit tired looking( TV in jacuzzi didn't work ) no kitchen and smelt of smoke, the staff were great getting us cups and glasses for the apartment but i had expected a kitchen and hated the smell, they moved us the next day and new apartment was perfect although sofa bed never actually went back into a sofa, location was perfect, staff were extremely helpful, was quite noisy at night but would stay here again just specifying kitchen required.

Upgraded to hotel across the street
It was very difficult to find this apartment. When we finally did (with the help of a waiter a few doors down the street), and tried to check in across the street, we were told that there was a problem with the apartment, but they booked us two adjoining rooms in their hotel instead. The staff was very helpful and our children were amazed by the decor in this boutique hotel. Each room had unique furnishings and exotic bathrooms. The rooms were quiet, despite being located near several late night bars and cafes. It was a one-mile walk to the Parque del Buen Retiro and just a bit further to the Prado.

Great apartments if travelling in a big group
The only confusing part is that you have to check-in across the street at the Abalu hotel. Oh, that and the hi-tech door locks that end up being a little tough to manage. But after that, everything was fantastic. The location is very centralized in Madrid and everything is a few blocks away. Malasana district is right there. There are some great bars and stores on Calle Pez. The apartment was spotless. The rooms were great and there were more than enough comfortable beds for our group. The staff was also very helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

Pictures can be deceiving
ApartaSuites in Madrid was located on Calle Pez. Its on a narrow street close to porn theatres. Its approxiamtely 6 blocks from La Gran Via. The Beds were hard. The view was uninspiring. At night the lobby door leading to the street would be open, the lobby lights were off and had to be manually turned on. Could not get comfortable at all.

ce n'est pas un hotel 4 étoiles.
Nous avons été déçu par cet hotel, non pas réellement parce que l'hotel était décevant mais parce qu'il ne correspondait pas à nos attentes. Il ne s'agit nullement d'un hotel 4 étoiles de prime abord. je lui en mettrai 2 voire 3, principalement du à son coté vetuste. Parmi les points négatifs, au dela du fait qu'il ne s'agisse pas d'un hotel 4*, * sur le site il est mentionné qu'il y'a un service de navette fourni par l'hotel. Nous avons contacté l'hotel et ce service n'est plus fourni depuis un moment. D'ailleurs auparavant ce service était fourni mais payant (des affiches existent encore dans les ascenceurs) et coutait plus cher que prendre un taxi... * Sur le site il est marqué que la chambre dispose d'un jacuzzi; c'est bien le cas, MAIS le jacuzzi EST PAYANT et à hauteur de 45€ par jour.... * Pour laisser ses affaires à la consigne (en attendant de récupérer sa chambre), il y'a des casiers sans surveillance et qui n'inspire pas vraiment confiance et il faut payer 2€. * L'hotel ne dispose pas de piscine * La deventure de l'hotel et les pièces communes font vraiment sales, le mur à l'entrée est cassé, la peinture n'a pas été refaite depuis des décennies. Dans l'espace consignes il y'a des flaques d'eau savonneuse par terre, comme si cétait le lieu ou les femmes de menage vidaient leurs seaux. 2 points communs malgré tout, la proximité du centre ville et le fait que les chambres (suites) soient spacieuses et les lits confortables.

Dear guest. Exactement. Ce n'est pas un hôtel. C'est un appartement. Et c'est précisé dans la réservation. Dans les caractéristiques générales il est écrit : certains appartements ont un jacuzzi. Certains d'entre eux. Votre réservation ne comportait pas de jacuzzi. Les appartements avec jacuzzi sont plus chers. Si vous réservez un appartement avec jacuzzi, vous aurez un appartement avec jacuzzi. Votre réservation était sans jacuzzi. Les consignes sont totalement sécurisés. Le personnel d'entretien et de nettoyage est présent dans le bâtiment à tout moment et nous disposons de caméras de sécurité. Un mot de passe/code est nécessaire pour entrer dans le bâtiment, que seuls nos guests hôtes possèdent. L'hotel ne dispose pas de piscine et il n'est écrit nulle part qu'il dispose d'une piscine. Atentamente, AB Design Suites

Para no volver
la estancia muy ruidosa, es un edificio de apartamentos en frente del hotel. Lleno de turistas ruidosos que tienen música muy alta todo el dia, una calle muy transitada por personas y coches que hacen ruido durante todo el dia y madrugada, por lo que dormir y descansar imposible. La limpieza deja mucho que desear, dentro de la habitación chicles pegados en las paredes...con eso lo digo todo. Yo al menos no volveré.
