My friends and I (university students from Ireland) stayed here for our weekend holiday to Madrid, and it was perfect.

Location: It's very close to two metro stations (Noviciado and Tribunal) and a short walk to the heart of the city and a great art museum. The area also has a lot of food and drink places nearby.

The apartment: Clean, roomy, and home-y! Very well stocked (toilet paper, towels). Kitchen has just about every appliance you could possibly need for your stay.

The host: Paloma is an absolute angel! She checked up on us very regularly to make sure we were alright both regarding the apartment and general stuff regarding madrid since it was our first time.

Overall if anyone reading this is pondering where to stay for their trip then I honestly say look no further. I really can't say I had any regrets about staying here (and I am a very picky person regarding accommodation on holidays), cheap, lovely and well located. The pictures don't lie either! :)
