"In a great location – if a little noisy."
"The all-white lobby... and the fancy gastrobar facing Plaza Santa Ana set the hip mood for the mostly young urbanites who stay in this former trench coat factory." Full review
"Alicia is crisp and contemporary, with light-wood wall panels and brightly colored bed throws offsetting the otherwise all-white décor." Full review
"The ideal location for those wanting to be in the thick of Madrid’s vibrant nightlife. This clean cut ultra-modern hotel is affordable to most travellers yet luxurious at the same time."

"Located on a buzzing square in the bohemian neighbourhood of Barrio de las Letras is the stylish Room Mate Alicia." Full review
