This apartment is wonderful!! First of all, we were late to arrive but Silvia patiently waited for us at the door and took us on a tour of the apartment! She provided some food and drinks which was wonderful since we didn't make it in til almost 8pm and didn't know the area well enough to look for a store at night. Come to find out there's a Dia grocery store a block away. Although it's in the middle of a touristy area, the apartment itself is in the back of the building so it's very quiet (which was good for us since our kids had a hard time keeping Spanish hours)! It's very well-located with shopping (right off Gran Via with A LOT of stores) and a lot of restaurants close by (we recommend eating at the Asturiano restaurant down the street--really good). Everything was clean and well-stocked. Beds are comfy, there are plenty of clean towels, nice washer/dryer combo, new stove and oven...everything was wonderful! Thanks again Silvia! We appreciate your hospitality!!
