This is a great area in which to live — vibrant and plenty of places to eat and shop near the apartment, especially if you like vintage clothes. It does sometimes get a bit noisy though given the many bars and restaurants so if you’re a light sleeper it might not be for you.
If you can get past that though, it’s a lovely place to live. Looks exactly as it does in the pictures and is perfect for a couple. It neighbours Chueca, which is also quite a lovely area.
There’s a supermarket literally just a few doors away (Express) and another about 2-3 minutes away (Dia) if you need to stock up on supplies.
The Tribunal metro station is also not far and people are super friendly if you’re unsure how it works. We easily moved around to get to a soccer match. Uber is also available though.
Our hosts answered questions quickly, which was great.
Overall, if it wasn’t for the few noisy nights, it would have been absolutely perfect.
