We had a fabulous stay at the apartment. It is exactly as described. Check-in and check out were excellent because of Gaby and the whole Minty team. The apartment was very clean and well appointed. It is within walking distance to the metro, bus/bus tour stops, and the train station. We used Uber quite a bit because one person in our group was injured. Atocha has many great places to eat within walking distance. Overall we loved the apartment and would definitely stay there again! The washing machine was not a big issue for us as reflected in other reviews. It’s use was explained in detail to me and I in turn explained its use to the others in our group. I’ve never seen a washer designed like this one. After using it, I see how others have gotten poor results.
WASHING TIPS:
1. Lift the lid. If the hatch to the silver drum is not visible, manually rotate the drum until it is. Open the hatch to put your clothes inside.
2. Dissolve one detergent pod in water before adding it to the washing machine as the pod may not completely dissolve and stain your clothing.
3. You have to use a clothes line to dry so wring out as much water as possible before hanging the clothes.
Good luck!
