The pros:
Location, location, location!!! You couldn’t ask for a better place to stay in Madrid. This unit is right in the center of everything. It didn’t matter which way we walked, we found
all the big tourist sites within roughly 20 minutes. Plus, the subway station just outside the front door made it super easy to get to the high speed trains for all the day trips we took. This is a spacious, comfortable apartment with a king size bed. The kitchen and bath are a bit small, but we had everything we needed for a month stay.
The cons:
The apartment is located on a very busy and noisy square, especially on the weekends. Closing the windows and shutters muffled the sound, but not fully. Additionally, there is a significant amount of construction in the square right now which adds to the noise level. We used a white noise podcast to offset the noise and it worked great.
Overall, our experience was terrific, our host was responsive, and I would highly recommended it.
