The apartment has a great view of the royal palace from the roof. Great location away from the hustle and bustle of the city but still walking distance to some of the main attractions such as the San Miguel market and the gran via shopping area. The apartment has a lift as described but from the lift to the apartment there is still a short flight of stairs to take which is typical of an European apartment flat since this apartment is located at the top floor. Overall a really good experience as Lina was very responsive and welcoming by providing baguette and red wine as welcome gifts.
