Great central location. Friendly & helpful staff. Nice touch to have been given the upgraded room with a view. Clean room although on the small side with limited storage/hanging space so lived out of our cases. Sky Bar was nice amenity especially the happy hour.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Most of the staff are very friendly, some of them not that much. The Spanish ladies are so sweet, very professional and very kind all the time. The food is not good, breakfast must be more varieties, every day is the same food, the Hotel is very central for everything, but for sure need a full renovation, mattress are very uncomfortable, and in general the hotel is very old. Edition is much better, new, fresh and very luxury, but of course more expensive. You want to pay for less, this hotel is ok, you want to pay more with better amenities stay in Edition.
