The neighbourhood is lively and within walking distance from everything . We spent 10 days in Madrid and didnt need to use public transport at all . There is an elevator if you carry luggage or shopping bags . A self caterer's heaven with 3 supermarkets within a 500 m radius , one open 24/7 .. Well equipped kitchen, if you wish you can really cook including meat dishes, Lively neighbourhood feels safe even after midnight . Lots of eateries patronizes by both locals and tourists. There's even a washer if you want to do your laundry and an inner yard w all you need to hang stuff out to dry. The hosts are young and friendly , they react quickly if you gave a wish . A caveat : this is rather a studio , so perfect for 2 guests but we feel cramped for a group of 3-4 . Decent storage space in the built in wardrobe and kitchen cupboards and a comfy sofa . We felt like home and would stay there again
