This apartment is clean, comfortable and in a great location on a pedestrianized street and small plaza in the lively neighborhood near Plaza Mayor. At first we were concerned it would be noisy but with the windows closed it is very quiet. We enjoyed watching the street scene from the balcony. Helen and Martin's recommendations were spot on. They are top notch hosts in every way. The only possible draw back would be for guests with mobility issues as the apartment is up 2 flights of narrow stairs but not a problem for this more-than-middle-aged couple.
