The Hotel was in a brilliant location and great value for money. Although a little dated, it had great charm including a delightful covered balcony. The staff were charming and helpful and check-in/check-out easy and convenient. Will happily return if in Madrid again.

If you are conversational in Spanish an want a quaint place situated in the center of Madrid then I highly recommend staying at this accommodation. You are less than 10 minutes away from the Sol Metro and 3 min walk to the San Miguel Market. However, the rooms are located on the 3rd floor of the building and the entrance to the 3rd floor is always locked. Therefore we often had to go to the 2nd floor to ask the receptionist to open the door which was pretty inconvenient if you go in and out all day. Multiple the dining options around and historical sites are walkable. Recommend if traveling with young adults vs elderly.

The hotel is in a busy district which can be loud sometimes but not too much as long as you close the windows. It is a good walking distance to most attractions which is why i chose this place.

Very central to everything!

Loved the location since it as very central to everything! Anna was always kind and helpful in so many ways...really appreciated her kindness. It was rather noisy at night with outside deliveries which is not fault of the hotel. The mattress was rather hard so it was difficult to get a good nights sleep. Very clean and charming room...not too small at all. All in all would still stay here again

First time in Madrid and this was a perfectly walkable location close to locals bars and restaurants. We explored a good radius and there was plenty to see, do and buy. I really liked the leather shoe shops and there was one cork shop which are way more common in Portugal. Check out El Mercado for a fast service but busy and fun food hall, but you also have cheaper grocery options like the Dia stores for fruits and such. Charcuterie is everywhere. The smell of pig is inescapable in some areas, so FYI, but I thought it was fine. You can find 2 euro wine in grocery stores and more expensive options in the shops. As far as accommodations, La Macarena staff was very polite. Our beds were made every day. There is no fridge. Our room was a two bed turned into a three bed which made for cramped quarters but were were happy with it besides when we tried to cuddle and the beds pushed together were a little gapped. I would recommend this place! We had a great stay!

It was a great find. It is close to everything in Centro Madrid. The room was very small but has a lot of character. It was clean, quaint and charming. The balcóny is adorable. I was very happy with it. Practical, cute and great price. There is also a place near where you can store your bags. I would definitely go back.

Perfect location, clean and comfortable.

Perfect location just 2 mins from San Miguel Food market and the local squares. Within 20-30 mins walk of most other locations on our list. The staff were friendly and helpful. We weren’t planning on spending too much time in our room, so although basic, it was very clean and comfortable, so perfect for our stay.

Siamo stati ospiti di questa struttura 4 notti io e il mio ragazzo. Posizione super comoda a pochissimi passi da plaza mayor e mercado de san miguel. La stanza davvero piccolissima e il bagno abbastanza rovinato. Il personale non parlava nessuna lingua se non lo spagnolo ed è un disagio quando non lo parli. La struttura in generale era davvero poco insonorizzata in quanto una notte non siamo proprio riusciti a dormire perchè gli ospiti della camera accanto hanno deciso di guardare la tv con volume molto alto durante la notte. Una delle sere siamo usciti per andare in discoteca e ci hanno richiamato gli stessi della camera accanto perchè stavamo camminando per uscire (sempre dalla nostra camera). Non lo consiglierei soprattutto per la qualità prezzo.

Upon arrival, a clerk said that part of payment was not done despite of inputting my credit card info. at the reservation several weeks ago. He, the clerk, said later that my payment was fine without saying any apology. Poor management on the payment transaction. Plus a shower unit is too small for 6 foot tall guy. Never visit again.
