The flat on Calle del Almendro was perfect for us. We found everything about it to be as advertised in the listing. It’s location was within walking distances to many tourist attractions, restaurants, and nightlife, and there were two Metro stations witching very reasonable walking distance as well.
The actual setup of the flat is exactly as seen in the listing, while it is not a large space it was absolutely spacious enough for us two. The flat was very clean, neatly decorated, and well-maintained.
The neighborhood (La Latina) is very safe, and mostly quiet. A few of the bars and restaurants along Cava Baja and Cava Alta (which are two of the streets coming off of the plaza that Calle del Almendro also runs into) and in the plaza itself are closed during the week, and open Thursday through Sunday; that’s when the neighborhood gets substantially busier especially at night. Being from New York City the nightlife in La Latina generally very subdued, there is just a noticeable difference once the weekend arrives.
All-in-all we loved Madrid, definitely enough to visit again soon at the very least. I would definitely book our stay at the flat on Calle del Almendro again. Cristina was also very gracious in keeping in contact with me during the week making sure that everything was going well in the apartment, and provided us with a couple of personal suggestions for dining out. 5 Stars for sure.
