+ This place was absolutely perfect. The hosts were super friendly and informative about the surrounding attractions. The property is literally 15 minute walk from everything.
+ We had a nice tight room; bathroom worked fine. Roberto was very helpful about area sights, including how to get the bus for the airport. Note Artistic B&B is a Floor 3 walkup on steep stairs with limited handrailing.
+ Location was terrific. Roberto could not have been me friendly and helpful.
10,0ElizabethEn familia · ago 2024+ This was a really lovely boutique hotel well situated in the heart of downtown Madrid. The staff was friendly and the place was charming and clean. Would definitely recommend.
+ Very nice place in the old part of Madrid. Very charming, clean, rooms and a friendly staff. No shortage of dining options amongst the quaint streets of La Letras. If you want more action the Grand Via is minutes away. Highly recommended.
+ The hotel has an excellent location. It is at walking distance from major interesting sites. Be prepared for really tiny rooms
+ The property managers were very helpful and made our stay easy! The room was in great condition and clean
10,0Verified travelermay 2024+ Todo excelente, ubicación, servicio por parte del personal… solo hay que tener cuidado con las escaleras
4,0KieranEn familia · may 2024+ The room was small and not the two beds we ordered. The breakfast is not on site and was not available for our departure at 7am . Despite this no reduction in price. The rooms are on the 3rd floor of an old building. There is no elevator and at night the stairs are not lit l are dark and hazardous. Overall…don’t stay here. Way to epexensuve for what you get and difficult to find and navigate. AVOID!
6,0LaurieEn familia · may 2024+ This is advertised as a Bed and Breakfast. It is actually a Hostel. The picture on the website would have you believe that is has a front entrance with a little cafe, which is false.
+ Staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and well-equipped. The stairs will definitely help you get in shape! The area is wonderful - so many bars, restaurants, shops, museums, etc. It's easy to walk to just about anything you'd want to see in Madrid, and for the things more than a couple miles away, there's a metro stop super close by.
10,0MichaelEn familia · abr 2024+ Beautiful quiet and clean room, friendly staff, perfect location in Huertas neighborhood. No elevator, but the reception staff were happy to carry our big bag up the stairs and would have carried them all if necessary.
+ Lovely property along a quaint street! The rooms were very comfortable. Great dining options nearby. The staff were super nice.
10,0MichaelEn familia · mar 2024+ The location was fantastic close to the Prado, Plaza Major, and numerous restaurants and tapas bars. I cannot ding them on the 3 flights of steep stairs, as it was fully disclosed, but it is literally a long haul for luggage. I also thought that lighting could have been better.
+ The provided door code didn’t work. No one answered the door
+ Thank you.
6,0ValeriyEn familia · ene 2024+ Location is excellent. The food vouchers for breakfast were a nice feature. Now for the bad: There was a periodic vibrating noise from pipes that interfered with sleeping and a 4 story walk up was annoying. Also, roof above hallway was held up with temporary support beams. Security was questionable as door from street, from floor, and individual room
all used same code. I wondered if all the rooms on property were accessible via same code. Therefore we didn't leave anything valuable in the room. Price of 300 US per night for a small room with old bed and 2 extra cots seemed much. Matresses were uncomfortable. With all of the above problems, I loved the location and was happy with my stay in Madrid. In future, I would opt for a true hotel.
+ On the 4th floor of a walk-up, so pack lightly....very lightly! The young gent that checked me in was kind enough to help me bring up me bag. More of a hostel than a hotel. There is a very small bedroom with a small closet, mini-fridge and a bed. Walls are thin so they ask that you keep all noise down with good reason. There is a common area with vending machine that doesn't always work. This is a good place if you are in your early 20s and need a place to crash while visiting Madrid. The selling point for this B&B (minus the breakfast actually) is the location. You are a stone's throw from bars, restaurants, meet & cheese shops, pastries, clubs, outdoor dining, music, etc. Stay here if you have good cardio and do not plan to stay in your room much.
+ Great room. Clean and has everything you need. Location is fantastic within the artist quarter. Would be nice to have a kettle! Otherwise no complaints.
2,0MonicaCon amigos · nov 2023+ s advertised, you need to ring the bell to get in a house where the entrance has no light. We did not get in as we were to go 3 flights in the dark
Ca
+ A special unique place in the center of the city with wonderful helpful friendly staff.
Excellent
+ Beautifully decorated, comfy, easy checkin. Loved every part.
Great, cute place right in a vibrant barrio
+ Wonderful place, quirky and very nice interior; it is glaringly obvious that they put a lot of thought and love into this.
+ This place is unique and in an incredible location. It's close to all the major sites, including the Prado. There are dozens of bars and restaurants right near the hotel.
However, they do not serve breakfast. The nice young lady who was present during the day (no one was there at night) seemed surprised when I asked about breakfast. She pointed to the vending machine.
And the STAIRS! Oh my gosh! It was a struggle for me for sure. There is no elevator and though I knew that when I booked, there were four long flights up with my suitcase to get to my room. The walls were paper thin and I could hear everything in the bathroom next to my room. Everything.
+ No TV channels
10,0RebeccaCon amigos · ago 2023+ Walkable location, clean and quiet rooms, lovely staff! An overall great experience at an affordable price
nice place near the center, not easy to get in
+ the places is nice and well located. It has no elevator, so don't think about going with luggage. Service was amazing by the owners. Its hard with no front desk to get in contact with them if you are a tourist, no hotel before had I had to call or get in touch with someone to get in... but after you manage to do it, they are really friendly
+ As an interior designer the wall paint colors/ragging attempt was horrendous, but the room was clean, a/c worked great, great shower pressure, and a comfy bed. Not bad for a bed to sleep in, at least your eyes are closed, lol.
I could hear my neighbors showering and doing other things (thin walls) but LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
8,0LuisEn familia · jul 2023+ I recently visited this lovely place in Madrid that, despite being small, was extremely clean, friendly, and conveniently located. This establishment truly impressed me with its attention to cleanliness. Every corner was impeccably maintained, creating a very pleasant atmosphere.
One of the most appreciated features of this small yet delightful place in Madrid was the much-needed air conditioning, especially during the hot summer.
The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly greeted and provided with all the information I needed. Their kindness added a personal touch to the experience, and I genuinely appreciated their warm and professional attitude.
The location was really convenient. Situated in the heart of Madrid, this place was easily accessible and close to many tourist attractions. It allowed me to move around the city effortlessly and fully enjoy my stay.
This place was a hidden gem in Madrid. The spotless cleanliness, friendly staff, and perfect location make it a must-visit for anyone seeking a comfortable and enjoyable stay in this beautiful city. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning on my next visit to Madrid.
+ Lots of character and charm. As other reviewers mentioned climbing the three flights of stairs can be a bit much after walking all day in the city and lights in hallway don’t stay on consistently when climbing stairs, which would help not to fall. I think it was the second floor light that was out…not sure. The only thing that made me rate three stars was that the doors to some of the rooms won’t close without slamming them, which ended up being along me up a lot during the first night and following morning of my stay while I was trying to sleep. This seems like it cools be an easy fix to increase customer quality of life while staying a try is property. Also, another improvement could be an outlet on the room that was clnveneient to charge phone. The only ones I could find had lamps and such already plugged into them and were behind furniture. Other than that, all good! Walkable and cute place.
+ This is a basic, affordable, and comfortable option for anyone wanting to enjoy a couple of nights in a charming area of Madrid.
+ Great location, within walking distance to many of the must-see sites. Communication was prompt and staff were super helpful and kind. They even found us a place to stay for an extended night when they didn’t have a vacant room and we were considering extending our stay in Madrid. Mind you, this is just a room among several on a single floor inside a multi-floor apartment. The room was very cute and tastefully decorated. There is a “common area” where you can buy water and drinks from a vending machine. Also the sofa bed is really for a child (which served our purpose just fine). The balcony door opens all the way to let fresh air in, which we really enjoyed. There are lots of trucks going in and out on this street though, so there was some noise in the wee hours of morning. The bathroom was very clean and pleasant with shampoo etc, including a hair dryer. Oh and there are absolutely fabulous cafes and bakeries nearby. This was a perfect place for a short stay. Thanks to the hosts!
8,0Verified travelerjun 2023Not a B&B
+ Location wise you can't beat it, close to the big galleries, surrounded by bars and restaurants, and not too far away from the heart of the city. There's a metro a couple of blocks away, which with a couple of changes gets you to and from the airport.
The décor is great, as can be seen in all the photos and the bed was lovely and comfortable. However, I think only two rooms have a view of the street, so make sure you can get those if possible.
Then there's the stairs, we were prepared, but they're still a tough climb after a a day exploring Madrid!
Finally, it's no longer a B&B, if you want breakfast you buy a voucher from the staff and go off to one of a couple of cafe's for your breakfast. We found we were better off to just go and find our own breakfast, there's no shortage of places nearby and many were cheaper than the voucher.
+ Nice location in Poet's district near Prado. Very tiny room and bathroom, but artistically decorated. You have to walk up 3 flights of stairs, no elevator. Staff person was very helpful and will lug your luggage up and down the stairs.
Madrid centro
+ very cozy place located in a great spot of Madrid.
+ property was very convenient to two metro stops (red line & light blue line). Always felt very safe. Doors are coded - front door, main door to the B&B, and to the room.
Room was mopped daily & fresh towels were also provided daily.
Wooden stairs were a chore at first, but by day 3 we were pros. There are light switches as you go up, they are timed, so if it goes off just turn them back on. Also, the gentleman at the front desk was super very helpful bringing up my luggage and helped us with luggage at check out as well.
I would definitely stay here again.
10,0JayEn familia · mar 2023+ I stayed in this B&B two times in a row. Great value for money. Easy to access from Metro stations and located in a safe, area. Very friendly and professional hosts. They are very helpful. A cleanliness.
10,0JayEn familia · mar 2023+ Excellent value for price. Two thumbs up! The hosts are super nice, friendly, and professional. Very clean. Interior design offers ethnic Spanish ambiance . Great location in a safe area. Very close to a subway station (Anton Matin) and other attractions and plazas. Highly recommend. I would stay again. Breakfast is offered at three different nearby restaurants which give wider menu selections. No complaints at all during my two-time stays for a total of 4 nights.
+ Ida, our staff contact, was superb. She was extremely helpful and friendly. The property location is excellent, within walking distance to restaurants and attractions. (Recommend the Brown Bear Bakery just down the road.) No elevator - steep stairs with no handrail going up to reception and rooms. Stairwell is very dark- there is a light switch on the right as you enter. The room itself was adequate. For 1 person it would be good. There were 2 of us with a dbl bed. Space was cramped.
8,0Verified travelerfeb 2023+ El colchón ya necesita cambiarse, y las habitaciones deberían tener una mejor insonorización. Se oye todo el pasillo y las habitaciones/baños contiguos. Por lo demás, muy buen sitio, bien ubicado y personal muy amable
