This apartment is nicely located on a smaller street located just minutes from the Prado, other museums and Atocha train station. It is well furnished and attractively decorated with real artwork. Those that plan on staying in the front bedroom will experience noise coming from the street at night due to the restaurant with exterior seating just below. Generally, the walls are thin and you can clearly hear the occupants of the adjacent apartments. If you are used to urban living these things won't bother you.
The kitchen is poorly equipped, so if you plan on cooking, good luck. If you want to slice an apple or cut a piece of cheese you will have difficulty because there is no cutting board nor knife appropriate for cutting. Frying eggs will also be a challenge because only two burned-beyond-recognition frying pans were present. Not even a roll of paper towels were provided.
During our stay, the apartment below was under construction. The sound of hammer drills was present during the daytime. Luckily, we were out most of the day, but the host did not have the consideration to warn us of this condition. That was a choice, not an oversight.
Upon our arrival the agent decline to meet us personally, but directed us to use an app to open the locks of the apartment. This app was difficult to understand and required a cell phone signal which is absent when you are in the stairwell; we had to go back outside to unlock the doors.
This experience can generally be described as a lack of hospitality.
