The location of Helena's place is perfect. I might say it has the best location if you are interested in art, cool bars, food, architecture and the best spots in Madrid. The amenities are fine. The bathroom has a nice shower with fast hot water. The apartment is cute and it has a charming antique elevator that requires explanation by the lady that helps the owner. We even took a video of it, super cool. The only thing is that we struggled with the locks almost every time (main door & apartment). We know that the building is antique, and that's part of the charm, but the locks could be changed to new ones without affecting the whole experience. Definitely, the best thing was the location. You are close to everything within walking distance. You are in the Prado area which includes the trifecta Museo del Prado, Museo Reina Sofía and Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza. There are super cool bars and restaurants all around and in the Barrio de Las Letras. Also, you have Paseo del Prado and Paseo de Recoletos just there to stroll around. The best of Madrid.
