Ricardo‘s place was cute and in a great location. We could reach almost anything we wanted on foot but walked over 20,000 steps a day. It is definitely tight but doable. If you have more than two people, be aware the hot water can run out in the shower. Take short ones or leave time in between. Other than that it was great. We had no problems and found lots of wonderful international food in the area. Parking is expensive. The €8 garage was closed when we got there. The €20 garage you leave the key. It wasn’t open early for our flight back on a Sunday so we parked in Atocha for €32.50. Those prices seem normal in Madrid. I definitely recommend Ricardo’s place if you don’t mind being a bit tight.
