This apartment is a very efficient, comfortable, centrally-located option for a Madrid stay. It was perfect for our family -- myself, my wife and our 13-y-o daughter. It is mere steps from the Sol Vodafone metro stop, and walking distance to the art museums, Royal Palace, Gran Vía, Plaza Mayor, etc. Despite being in the heart of Madrid and in a neighborhood with bars, restaurants, pedestrian streets and shops, the apartment is quiet and secure. If you -- like us -- tend to spend the majority of your days out touring the city, this apartment would be a great option. Plus, our host, Francisco, was quick to communicate and was very accommodating, especially as our travel plans changed slightly at the last minute. Our greeter, Pilar, was also very generous and helpful. All around a great experience.
