This being our first time in Madrid we were a little hesitant about where to stay since we were completely unfamiliar with the neighborhoods but it seemed like El Centro was the place to go.
Raul’s place was amazing and the perfect base for everything we did in Madrid. Everything was either a short walk or metro ride away. The Opera metro station is a 3 minute walk!
The flat is just as pictured. It was perfectly appointed with little extras like body wash and shampoo. Susa was kind enough to meet us for check-in and give us instructions and tips. She also messaged periodically to make sure we were ok which we really appreciated.
One thing I will say is that this is a touristy area so if you’re expecting peace and quiet in Madrid I suggest a hotel. The back room is quieter so put your heavy sleeper in the front room and bring ear plugs! We will definitely be back!
