ibis budget Madrid Getafe 1 gwiazdka

We have stayed in a few Ibis hotels in the past so we had an idea of what to expect....or not! As usual nowhere to sit and 1 towel each but the room was clean. We would happily give a higher rating but our sleep was severely impacted by the lack of fan or air con. We had to leave the window open for airflow and were stuck with traffic noise and mosquito bites. The only possibly of airflow was heat because it was not yet the end of May.... hmmm.

Suitable stop off near the motorway. Check in was easy with friendly staff who all spoke English. Lift to rooms. Room was clean with large comfortable bed, tv etc. separate toilet with shower booth in the corner of the bedroom, unusual. No restaurant, but possible to have a form of breakfast if you pre-order. Ample parking. Nearby shopping centre with supermarket and numerous eating establishment about 5 mins drive away.

Chose this hotel as half way between Santander and my destination and did not want to drive at night. Need to be aware that cafes/bars are around this hotel. Also any couples using the room should not be concerned with privacy. Shower room is next to the bed and you come out right into the room. Wash basin is also next to the bed. If you are uncomfortable with your partner hearing ‘noises’ from the toilet this is not for you.

Clean and functional, very friendly staff, easy access from freeway. Great if you are travelling from the south and have to catch an early flight out of Barajas. Why spend more anywhere else? Ibis delivers ALWAYS,

Conveniently situated for our trip to southern Spain. Stayed going and on our return. Excellent breakfast and being intolerant to GLUTEN, the Staff provided me with Gluten free bread and biscuits. Thanks, would stay again if passing that way.
