The apartment combines a classic old building feel with interesting decor and a modern kitchen and bathroom. What you see in the photos is accurate: each room is a fine size, but as Georgi himself says, it’s really designed for a max of 3 people. More than that and you have to maneuver around each other in tight spaces. That worked perfectly for us; it’s just something to know. The beds were very comfortable.
The location was terrific. We ate breakfast and dinner one day literally 2 minutes’ walk away. There are also a couple of grocery stores within a few minutes. Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor are 10 minutes. Multiple Metro lines are also short walks.
Georgi was a terrific host: friendly, quickly to respond, and willing to work with us. He stocks the kitchen with many spices and condiments, and even left us a bottle of water.
One thing to note is that there’s a fair amount of street noise from a slow but steady flow of cars and people. Nothing Georgi can do; it’s just city life.
