adequate stay

great location polite staff muddy water thin walls
the location is perfect because atocha street is in the city center. many city attractions are close, such as plaza mayor and retiro park. i was happy, also there was always someone at the reception, and everyone are polite.
the tap water i notice was muddy. it was also yellow, and i hesitated to shower. the walls were thin, it was as if only a curtain separated rooms.
