Make sure you get an upstairs room, either overlooking the street (great views but noisier) or the courtyard (quieter but smaller). Avoid the small ground-floor bedroom right beside the restaurant.

Six standard doubles have large Astroturf terrazas that provide magnificent views of the great buildings on Gran Via. Request one of these; they're not more expensive than internal rooms.
