Library Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía — Attraction in Madrid

First, I would like to say thank you for offering us a space to study. But I believe there is some aspects that needs to improve:

If someone leaves a desk and a new person wants to come in, they won't allow you to get inside for "covid reasons". Even if the library is empty by 5pm, they won't let anyone inside because the desks were not cleaned.

The security scans the backpack. But we are not allowed to bring the bagpack to the desks. We need to care everything in our hands. Why can't we just bring the bagpack if it was already scanned by security?

Below I saw reviews that there are rules, yes, I recommend taking one coin for the locker, because the administrator may not have them and yes, you may have to wait for some time in the lobby, but it’s really worth it if you know that you are interested in...

Fantastic library. Calm, well-maintained, and even architecturally interesting. A big thanks to the Spanish public authorities for making it accessible to everyone for studying. I can’t help but find it amusing when people complain about the staff not speaking English... Welcome to Madrid, where the official language is...surprise...Spanish! And actually, the person at the front desk speaks French and is incredibly welcoming. The facilities are well-kept, and in my experience, the bathrooms are always spotless. The only small downside? It would be nice if bringing a bottle of water were allowed. Overall, a great...
