“Ch Barco's central Madrid location is a definite plus, and the hospitable staff make it easy to drop off luggage early or late. Rooms have the basics, including a small sink and smart TV, and I think the price reflects the no-frills aesthetic. For travelers who prioritize location and value, Ch Barco is a solid choice.”
