The apartment was clean and all appliances worked as expected. The checkin process was easy. The bedding and towels were adequate but could do with an upgrade. The location is near bus and tube stations allowing easy transport to all areas of Madrid. The main problem is that the apartment is on the first floor on a busy street and street noise made sleeping a challenge. In addition, the door closer on the building slammed the door shut and it sounded like a wrecking ball was hitting the building every time the door slammed shut.
