Everything about our stay was exceptional. We were met at the apartment at the allotted time by Mercedes, who joint owns the apartment with her brother, Jose. She gave us a helpful and thorough run down of everything we needed to know about the apartment and local info eg. best restaurants. She didn't know the answer to one of our questions, but emailed the answer to us within a few hours. She was attentive and very easy to get hold of.

The apartment itself made us all feel a million dollars. It was fantastic to have a space we loved relaxing in, perfect for the odd lazy afternoon or pre dinner drinks. I loved the art everywhere, it was really varied. It has two double bedrooms and one twin. One is en suite, the other bathroom has two doors - one to the other double bedroom and one to the hallway.

The apartment is opposite a short pedestrianised street that leads to Plaza Mayor, so you can actually see the main old town square from the living room. If you want an authentic old town experience, this apartment's location could not be rivalled. It's also less than 5 minutes walk from Mercado San Miguel, the fancy food hall/market with a huge range of tapas and drinks to graze on.

Our party comprised of my octogenarian father and his partner, my sister and her husband and my husband and I. Even though my husband and I had a twin room, I would still rent this apartment again.
