Daniel’s apartment is a fantastic spot from which to kick off into Madrid. It’s walking distance to practically everything, with Plaza Mayor basically outside the front window. I think I’ve been living outside of cities for too long, because I forgot how loud they are at night, and that’s definitely true of the pedestrian streets outside the apartment. They’re crowded with people eating and drinking and being merry until well after midnight. For us, this was a little rough because we were jet lagged and had a four year old with us. That’s hardly the apartment’s fault, but a quieter spot would probably have served us a bit better. If you want a quiet place to rest, this might not be it. If you are someone interested in the Madrid nightlife, however, this is a perfect spot for you!
