Nice ground floor 1-chamber appartment with modern furniture and kitchenware, well cleaned. Excellent wifi. A comfortable bed: we sleep very well. Small bathroom, thus small shower, but firm hot water. Shampoo and showergel available. Towels and bed linen are provided. It is like living as the locals. We like it a lot!!!
The neighbourhood is a melting pot of all cultures, young and old, little shops, living friendly together. The appartment is a few steps away from metro Lavapíes. We love the big Carrefour supermarket overthere which is open 24 hrs a day. The fresh sushi is higly recommended. Next to the appartment a telephone/internet shop: you can print your boarding card for the returnflight for 50 eurocents! Nearby a lot of small restaurants: food from all over the world. It is 10 minutes walk to the Reina Sofia museum and the Atocha station: metro to the airport. Also 10 minutes to the Prado museum, Parc del Retiro, or to Puerto del Sol. Plaza Mayor and the Palazza Real about 20 minutes walk. Closest busstop hop-on/hop off bus at the Prado. We like the 2 days-ticket. In this way we discover a lot of Madrid.
We have enjoyed our stay at this appartment and we will recommend it to our friends!
