Really well-positioned apartment near Atoche station, but also close to the Prado museum, Caixa Forum, Reina Sofia museum, botanical gardens and Retiro Park. We considered staying in the older parts of town, but the convenience of being near the station was actually really welcome, and the area was fine at all times of the day. Madrid's sufficiently compact that we walked everywhere anyway. Has two smallish but comfortable bedrooms (one double, one with bunks) without windows but which receive light from the pleasant, sunny living room through glass doors. There's a nice balcony (typical skinny Madrid style) overlooking the leafy street, and the kitchen and bathroom are both big. Slept well thanks to double-glazing and cosy beds. Effective shower with good hot water, and there's a washing machine too should you want it. Great for a few days' stay, we had no problems whatsoever and found Mercedes and her son Enrique very accommodating and good communicators! Thanks, we'd happily return!
