Rut was a very gracious host. Our flight from USA landed at 9 am and she allowed us to drop luggage next door at her apartment, leaving us unencumbered to explore the area until check in. Check in and out was easy.
The apartment was very clean.
The apartment was smaller than anticipated. We were 4 adult women for 4 nights and used both twin beds, the full bed and the futon to sleep on. Every available space was used.
The apartment was equipped with everything you need to cook light meals, we made breakfast every morning.
It is 5 flights up. Thankfully the risers of the steps were comfortable, but it is still 5 flights.
The location can't be beat. Plaza Mayor, and the wonderful Mercado de San Miguel is across the street. Also immediately across the street is a tourist office. Both the Vodofone Sol and Opera Metro stations are very close and easily walk-able.
Wifi worked great, no problem.
If I am ever again in Madrid, I would not hesitate to return to this apartment.
