on a side street..stairs going down into the unit thru the front door and crazy tiny little stairs up to the bedroom...I left my luggage downstairs to avoid falling. AC upstairs and a fan downstairs. an odd shower and not easy to see in the bathroom due to the lighting placement. I got in late and left early so it worked for me as a solo traveler. I found some tapas places within a short walk. expensive cab from atocho train station and too far to walk from there. Comfortable queen sized bed - just be careful with the stairs.
