Anita was excellent to work with and very responsive whenever we needed her. Slight delay in days when she was off, but within a short time another team member got back to us.

Hotel Reviews
Andante Hotel
Barcelona

I would not stay here again. Did not even meet basic expectations like having room ready at check in time let alone having just 1 of 3 rooms ready on the day of travel when we were exhausted. View from rooftop pool is amazing, but pool is cold and bar not open for 2 of 7 days. Even had treble the day we left n getting a taxi. Definitely better options available.

Authenticity & Character
Colorful and modern.
Location
Walkable to many areas
Staff
Meet minimal expectations and exceed with communication and some perks if there are any problems.
Cleanliness & Comfort
Very clean, but rooms as many are in Europe, were small.
Hotel Cortezo
Madrid

Location is absolutely perfect! Close to main plaza, museums, gardens, restaurants, theater district. Lively. Rooms ready when we arrived a little early. Rooms again are pretty small but you don’t spend much time there. So much to do!
