Eric Vokel

This place was pretty great! I was traveling with family, and a two bedroom apartment fit all of us perfectly, and was priced just right. We had a kitchen, sitting area, and a laundry room, as well as the benefit of having someone at the front desk to call if we needed any assistance. It was really quiet, we didn’t hear anyone else our entire stay.
The only odd thing is that it was technically two baths, but one shower was in the hallway. There was no place to put a towel or clothes inside the shower room, you had to go back out into the hallway to grab anything. It was so awkward, we all avoided using it.
This is a great, affordable option if you’re traveling with a group and don’t want to pay for multiple hotel rooms. It’s also awesome if you just want the creature comforts of home!

Eric Vokel Boutique Apartments is a chain of apartment style hotels in Madrid & Barcelona. There are different names for each location, and this one is the Madrid Suites.
Located in the center of popular tourist spots in the bustling city of Madrid, it’s the perfect place to stay if you’re a tourist! Especially since the metro station is less than 3 minutes walk away just down the block, so convenient!
The guy at the front reception desk was incredibly friendly, approachable and helpful. Since we arrived before check-​in time, he let us store our luggage in their available lockers so we wouldn’t have to lug it around for hours (check-​in time is normally at 3pm but if the room is checked out by the previous guest on time he assured us it would be ready by 1:30pm for no extra charge). How awesome is that?! :) He also took the time to show us the metro and city maps, along with giving us recommendations of places to see. They were legit suggestions and many were the same places we had already planned on visiting — such as El Rastro flea market.
Walking into our room me and my friend were pleased beyond words. Our room had been upgraded from two twin beds to 1 King bed AND two twin beds! Incredibly clean, modern with a super cute vibe. The small balcony lets you have an awesome view of the streets below, especially since we are on the 3^rd floor. Bathroom and kitchen area were immaculate and beautifully designed. Kitchenware is fully provided — pots, pans, silverware, cups and wine glasses. Big fridge, microwave, toaster all included! Living room area has a nice comfy couch and flat screen TV. It’s literally like a brand new apartment ready for you to live comfortably in, only better because it’s a hotel!
Affordable prices too, around $ 190 for two nights. This is my first time in Spain, and the first hotel experience which definitely exceeded my expectations.
Pictures to come after I’m back in the states!
