10/10 Excellent
"Located in a new neighborhood, close to the airport. Hotel 101 is both new and thoughtfully designed. This was an excellent alternative to the higher priced hotels closer to Madrid’s centre. An excellent breakfast buffet got us started before an easy 20 minute commute by train to Sol (two trains). Staff was friendly and helpful. There was a grocery store next door and restaurants located nearby. Self serve laundry on site was also very convenient."
