This apartment is definitely off the beaten path. We decided to stay here because we needed to travel between Central Madrid and Alcala, which worked out perfectly. Both the Metro and rail stations are about a 10 to 15 minute walk from the apartment. The apartment is in a very commercial/residential area outside of Central Madrid but it is an extremely convenient location from which to travel. 30 to 40 minutes from Central Madrid in one direction and Alcala about the same distance in the other. 15 minutes from the airport, and a short Uber or cab rides to other locations. The apartment is located on the first floor so it’s an easy walk up if you don’t want to take the elevator. 3 adults stayed and it was plenty of room for us. The apartment was clean and well appointed and the Hosts were extremely helpful and communicative. What you see from the description is what you get. Highly recommend.
