"Everything was good. The room was clean and staff was nice. Also, the kitchen was very spacious to prep meal."

Radisson RED Madrid
"The hotel's design is nice, but it's not functional, especially the bathrooms. The noise at night is unbearable because the bars in the area are constantly blaring from 10 pm until 8 am the next day. The staff wasn't very friendly and didn't offer solutions for problems they couldn't solve."

Hotel101- Madrid
"Nice hotel fairly close to Madrid airport. Good size room and good AC. Free shuttle to airport only goes at the top of the hour though and max 20 people. Shuttle makes multiple stops at bus and various terminals so can take more time than a taxi. Forgot to report this at checkout - an odd thing happened ..."
