Nice option
It was good. Spacious, calm, and well located. The transfer is good but can take a while. A bit dated but very comfortable.

Final Night in Spain
Just a one night stay. We needed to be close to airport for early morning flight. We were pretty tired from all our traveling. What a pleasant surprise!!! Had a lovely little dinner and drinks at hotel bar. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Lovely early morning breakfast and a shuttle to airport. Highly recommend!!!

Rooms need some updating
We needed a hotel close to the Madrid airport as we were transiting from Palermo to the US. The check in clerk was very nice and we were able to make a reservation for the airport shuttle for the next morning. Note that although the airport is close, you need to allow at least 1/2 hour from the hotel to the airport and probably at least 3 hours at the MAD airport before boarding as the security lines and passport check lines were very long. We only allowed 2 hours and barely made our flight. The hotel room was ok but had a bit of a musty smell and the furnishings are a bit tired. The AC control also did not work well and we could not get the temperature to adjust cooler. We arrived late so did not ask for it to be fixed or move rooms. The breakfast has a nice looking spread but most of the foods were pretty tasteless. The hotel is fine if you need a one night stop over, but would not recommend for longer. Plus, the configuration of the shuttle bus was a bit hard to navigate to load on luggage and get off but the bus driver was very nice and helpful.

Website advertising early check was not helpful nor accurate. I invested a significant amount of time to try and register through the Melia website. There was clearly no benefit. In fact, the experience at Melia Barajas was disappointing - pick-up took longer than expected (language issues with guests), and competing with other guests at a very late hour. Then, when I asked for return to the airport, the front desk said I would have to take a taxi, since the reservation slots were already filled for my preferred time. The whole point of staying at the Melia Barajas was the proximity and free shuttle to the airport!
