Really enjoyed my first visit to Madrid. It was a short one so I wanted to be centrally located and had researched this area and was really happy with the location! The place is super secure and even though you have to take stairs, it's not something that bothers me since I also live in a walkup in San Francisco. Might be a slight challenge when you check in but mostly I would leave for the day and then return late. There's also wifi of course which was fast and Pilar was really easy to communicate with since I arrived later than anticipated b/c of a flight delay and all.
