I booked this boutique hotel after researching and using the reviews from the blog, delicious baby, regarding hotel with children. The bunk room was ideal for four. However plaza de carmen is littered with party people all night long and the noise escalates at six am when the discotheque empty out into the square. The beds don't have duvets just one sheet. Bathroom is good. Breakfast is super simple and in the basement. It was family style backpackers. We wanted a plush weekend trip and a good bed. Beds are horrible. Hotel is decent but nothing special at all and I left feeling dirty. Next time , the Westin hotel for the bed and pillows! Madrid is laid out perfectly for walking everywhere. It's really easy to be near prado and walk to royal palace or mercado San Miguel. No need to worry so much about being close to center.
