Carmelo was so accommodating and friendly. He met me on the street when I was a little confused about location and helped me familiarize myself with the location. Malasaña has been one of my favorite places in Madrid so far: hip, vintage and specialty stores at every turn. Some great eats, and you can easily take a few main roads to center to some of the main plazas. This is a true studio apartment complete with everything you might need to cook your own meal! The building has a neighborhood feel bc everyone keeps their windows open. Felt very safe.
