Hotel Miro
Great location right next to the Guggenheim and walkable to countless restaurants and shops. Very friendly and helpful staff and a nice, comfortable lobby. The room was clean, quiet and mostly comfortable, though the bed was a little springy. Would stay there again.

Clean and comfort but is more like a business hotel than a holiday location. Staff seemed polite but not especially friendly
