Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Maestre

Around the corner from the Plaza del Potro, this is an affordable hotel in which Castilian-style furniture, gleaming marble, and high-quality oil paintings add elegance to excellent value. Rooms overlook a gracious inner courtyard framed by arches. The management also run an even cheaper lodging, the Hostal Maestre, a few doors away and two types of apartments down the street; the best are large and clean and represent a great value.
