After staying in Madrid for the whole summer, I was worried about finding the PERFECT place to stay with my mom as I showed her around the city for the first time. This apartment went above and beyond my expectations. The rooftop patio was very large-not to mention it completely opened up the interior of the apartment due to the full window wall. The patio overlooks Opera square- perfect for sipping wine and people watching at night. Lively square, but not noisy when going to bed. 5 steps from the metro stairs (which is convenient if you are dragging your luggage from the airport by metro... also there are always taxis right outside the front door of the apartment complex), 5 minute walk from Sol (the center of the city), and the Royal palace is right behind the Opera square.
Raquel could not have been more accommodating- she responded to all my emails and texts within the hour.
Perfect stay and would HIGHLY recommend.
