My mother (travel partner) became unwell the day prior to being due at Mathilde's. I was very greatfull for her encouragement for me to keep the booking (which I was going to cancel) as we did end up making it to Madrid and needing accommodation there after all. Mathilde was accommodating of us changing our check in day and asked after my mother a few times. She was always responsive and answered questions we had about the place (once there). The apartment is bigger than seems in the photos as it is very long. The kitchen was bigger and decently equipped for some simple cooking and food prep. Though the surrounding streets have loads of cafes.
