Central location with incredible rooftop patio
Pros:

The hotel was in an excellent location where everything was walkable. The rooftop patio was also excellent for having a drink or two before bed. They also serve food in case you don't want to leave the hotel. The selection for breakfast was good as well. Fresh fruits, traditional cold cuts and cheeses, spanish omletes and churros to name of few. They also have eggs, toast, veggies, build your own yogurt bowl, etc. It was also our honeymoon so they brought us a complimentary sparkling wine to the room but was unexpected and a nice surprise!

Cons:

We were on the first floor so it was very noisy at nice because we were facing Grande Via. It was also during the weekend of the National Holiday so I suspect more polic and ambulances than usual and that's really what was the problem. Otherwise the typical traffic or people didn't bother us. Also the light in the bathroom kept flickering on and off but we just closed the bathroom door.
