Limited room amenities compared to higher-rated properties

“Hostal Macarena sits in a lively area, steps from bars, restaurants, and tour pick-up points, which is a definite plus. While the building shows its age-some might find the bathrooms dated-the staff's politeness and daily bed-making are appreciated. It's a perfectly walkable location to discover local spots and Madrid's culinary scene.”
