This is apartment is centrally located, very near all the major tourist destinations, e.g., Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol, etc. The apartment is very pleasantly decorated with an open kitchen plan and verandas overlooking a quaint old street. The apartment is also very clean with all the needful things to make your stay in Madrid very pleasant. The host is very thoughtful (there were ready ice cubes on the fridge, coffee pods for the coffee maker, paper towels, etc.). The unit uses "radiant floor cooling" instead of the conventional air-conditioning so you will need to manage your expectations about the room temperature (you may need to open the windows to let the cool air into the rooms, which is what we did). Nonetheless, this was not a deal breaker for us as the perfect location trumped all our issues with the air-conditioning.
