This is a fabulous apartment in a fabulous city. It's in a perfect location that makes it a great starting point for walking nearly anywhere you want to be in Madrid and has everything you need, (including a coffee machine). Some reviewers have said that the street can be noisy, but my partner and I did not notice any noise on any of the four nights we stayed there in mid-June (a busy time of year). The street is steps away from main thoroughfares, but the windows and shutters did the trick in keeping out not only street sounds, but light. That, coupled with the comfortable beds, made sleeping in a breeze. Sandra was very accommodating when we told her we would arrive earlier than anticipated and she let us drop off the bags for a couple of hours while the apartment was cleaned. So, would I stay there again? Absolutely. Do yourself a favor and book this place!
