This apartment is in an incredible convenient location for exploring Madrid. Right next to multiple subway stops and able to walk everywhere. There is definitely some noise from sirens and the plaza below (even on the high up floor) and earplugs are recommended. MAJOR construction/rehab is taking place in the building right now, but there was no construction noise. The apartment appears to have been recently renovated and has a nice washer and dryer. The host was super responsive and when I let him know the wifi was not working he had the router replaced the following day. I appreciated that a lot. The check in was easy.
