The apartment was perfect, really spacious and well equipped. It was very secure and easy to find and although on the Main Street it faced on to the back of the building and nice and quiet. A 10 minute walk to the metro which took only about 10 minutes to the city centre. We opted not to use the main metro of Nuevos Ministerios as it is so big, other options same distance and much quicker in and out! 5 minutes walk to the Bernabeu stadium. Lots of shops nearby of all types and restaurants. In summary highly recommended.
