Cute little apartment right in the thick of things! Easy walking distance to the metro and the Atocha train station. There are cafes and restaurants all around. Mathilde’s apartment is full of color and thoughtful touches, including a box of maps, and museum and restaurant brochures. There is also a list of her own recommendations, which was great to check out.
Be aware that Madrid is not a quiet city, and as this apartment is centrally located, you will hear the sounds of nightlife. This simply adds to the flavor of the place, but if you’re a light sleeper, it might be beneficial to bring earplugs.
