    Very central, just next to Plaza Mayor and San Miguel Market. It was great to have A/C in the room, as it was around 35 degrees in Madrid.

    Location was amazing - right next to Plaza Mayor in the midst of a street of fabulous eateries. Checkin was excellent, the Hostal was manned 24 hours and we were able to store our luggage on the last day.
