The location near the Atocha bus and train station with easy access to the airport and the proximity to major Madrid museums and lots of restaurant choices were definite advantages. And Javier thoughtfully arranged for us to be able to leave our luggage at the studio before check-in time so that we had time to experience the city. And although the studio apartment is on a very busy street, the host has thoughtfully provided noise-baffling windows facing the street and blinds that effectively shield the bedroom from outside lights. We didn't settle in until 8:00 pm after a busy day spent at the nearby Thyssen Museum, and we left early the next morning to catch the Airport Express, so we didn't have much time to experience living in the studio or area, but the studio certainly suited our needs for an overnight stay.
