The Hotel Ciudad de Mostoles was chosen because of the proximity to my place of work and, to this extent, served a purpose for a short stay.I arrived late evening and was welcomed at the front desk. Check-in was efficient and the staff were courteous. Although the hour was late, I was able to have dinner in the restaurant, albeit I was the only diner. The food was served quickly and was tasty. The full continental breakfast served the following morning was also very good.
The accommodation itself was comfortable enough, although the layout of the room was rather quirky, with a glass shower cubicle in the centre of the room. Wash facilities were a little cramped.
Two points to note (resulting in a 3* rating as opposed to 4*):
1) The walls in the Hotel Ciudad are very thin. Sleep was frequently interrupted by, ahem, "noise" from adjacent rooms.
2) The option of a non-smoking room at check-in would have been preferred. The room I was allocated had quite obviously been occupied by a heavy smoker previously.
Perhaps I could have requested a change of room, but after travelling I was just keen to get settled.
Check-out the following morning was again efficient and the desk clerk was very helpful in arranging transportation.
