We were worried as we read the reviews about the service as we’re foreigners but it turned out fine. We were so lucky to get a table though it was very busy. The food was good and quick, the price is also very good considering that we normally pay a fortune in West Bay/ The Pearl.

This is a place to eat, not to chill and chit chat because there are tons of people queuing up and you might feel pressured as they really wait for your table. And for that I’d say the atmosphere is a lack for this place but other than that, we recommend to try an original food with freshly made bread.
My Milanese friends recommended to come to this restaurant, I love that you can create your own pasta dish. They make fresh pasta. But I find the taste a bit bland compare to southern food (Rome, Napoli, etc.) I understand that different regions have unique way of cooking. Yet I’d like it more if the sauce is richer in flavour.

Their tiramisu is very good, not too sweet and freshly made! This is a good place to visit if you want to have good pastas.

The price is fair, the service is good and the atmosphere is cosy. We’re not pressured to leave though they’re busy.
This is my first gym visit in Madrid and I loved it!
Actually not sure of it’s this branch haha if not we apologise in advance but from other pictures people posted, seems like where we went.

My husband used to live in Madrid and he recommended to stay near this gym as it’s his favourite. At first, we were looking for Virgin Active but we later realised it was already closed.

Location: it’s a walking distance from the hotel we stay so it’s convenient. But if you come from other places you might need a car.

Facilities: the place is pretty grand! They have everything- lots of dumbbells in different weights from super light to super heavy that I would never lift haha. They have a lot of cardio machines like treadmills, bikes, ellipticals, etc. They also have a boxing area.

They have showers and everything. I mean it’s convenient.

Staffs: We didn’t see many staffs but all we saw were friendly.

Price: We were there only a week, we bought a weekly pass. We don’t remember how much it cost...guess somewhat around €7/ day for a weekly pass.

The downside is that it’s hot...no air conditioners. Normally the gyms we go have AC...they open the doors and have fans but well...we were sweating like crazy haha but guess it’s how you get motivated.

The atmosphere is great. We saw many people who were really fit and strong- it really gave us a kick to work out more!

Overall, love it! Will visit again whenever we’re back in Madrid.
