Why guests love itBeing in the thick of it was the whole point for two students who booked La Fonda de los Príncipes, just off Puerta del Sol. They walked to Plaza Mayor in no time, came back late after tapas and needed only a clean, simple room for the night, with the metro almost at the door. The guest house has no rooftop or terrace, so the views they collected came from the squares themselves. For a central, no-frills base, they found it hard to beat.
