We travelled as a couple to explore Madrid. I summarize what we enjoyed in our stay & what to watch out for.
Things we enjoyed:
Renovated interior
Well furnished
Clean (except towels were smelly)
Central location. Easy access to metro
Many stores & shops in the area for everything we need to buy.
Kitchenette is well equipped with washing machine, coffee machine, microwave & toaster
Things we didn’t enjoy:
Check in was 30 mins later than agreed, we had to wait downstairs with our luggage.
Wall paper scratches in the bedroom
The whole place is dark. Bedroom has 2 small windows letting in very little light from outside.
Bed mattress not comfortable.
Living room window is overlooking the staircase area, which we didnt open for privacy.
Noisy building. walls are thin & you can hear noise from the neighbours & staircases & can even smell the cooking from other floors.
Area. The building is inside the winding streets of Lavapies district, which could feel a bit shabby at times.
