This is a fantastic apartment in a very central (and hip neighborhood!) area of Madrid. You are near the metro, quick 10 min walk to plaza de Mayor, calle de cava baja (where locals go to eat), mercados, puerta de toledo, and so many restaurants, shops, cafes and bakeries. The apartment is spacious and really felt like home for my mother and I. FYI, as most apartments in Europe, there is no elevator so it is a stair walk up. But if you travel right, you should only have a carry on suitcase and will be fine :) . Angel is a fantastic host. He gave me recommendations of places and things to check out, was helpful about the area and was ready to answer any questions I had during my stay. My mom and I had a great time and would stay at this apartment if we return to Madrid.
