This is such a wonderful apartment in a great area of Madrid. We spent a lovely week here, it is very spacious and beautifully designed, a pleasure to live in. Lavapies is a very good neighbourhood, many excellent bars and cafes with a real neighbourhood feel, and yet it is a short walk to The Prado and other major galleries - we enjoyed visiting the Prado during the free hours of 6-8 over a number of evenings. It is also close to the Atocha station which is very handy for day trips to El Escorial and Toledo. Excellent hosts. Highly recommended.
