We did eventually warm up to this apartment and were grateful for the proximity to everything we wanted to do and see, but it took a couple of days. We were greeted by an extremely cold house in 30 degree Madrid weather that took all night to warm up with every heater on full blast. The place did not feel clean as we found stray hair in bathroom and bedroom and scuff marks on the walls and a very worn couch. It did not have a cozy feel as the bedroom walls were bare. It needs a little TLC and I think this would be a nicer place to stay.
