the place is larger than I expected. The living room could have a big family dining and chilling around at the same time.
what hit me first and then each time I enters the apartment in my 10 days stay is the sharp stench of smoking, not necessarily recent but repeated and old smoking. I don't know what it takes to get rid of it, but it was really hard on me during my stay. I didn't bother to request a change of room because looking at my neighbors, mostly young Spanish and other European youngsters coming to party in Madrid, I guessed every room would be the same. Acoustics are am issue. You can hear everything going on in the building. Luckily there were no late parties during my stay.
there's Red Cross and a holes shelter in the block. Aid seekers chill out and wait at the buildings door, but they respectfully stand to let you in.
