The apartment is in a great location. Walkable to attractions and easy to get a cab on the Gran Via. The hosts were very gracious in offering to call cabs and the like for us. Met us right at the door as we arrived. There is a lift so no carrying bags upstairs! Kitchen was well stocked and bathrooms were clean and a good size for Europe, not microscopic like some places. Very easy shopping nearby as well. Good supply of towels and the like.
