A good stay which could have been great,...were it not for the ant problem and lots of frustrating niggles. This is a very stylish and cleverly decorated basement apartment (no lift but only a few stairs) in a brilliant location. But look closely and it desperately needs some TLC in areas. No smoke alarm, which was extremely concerning, and lots of other little details and touches which need addressing...eg. not enough kitchen equipment. But by far the little ants were the biggest issue. Apparently this is normal in Madrid for Aug, but the ant trap under the sink was old and more could/should have been done to address this issue. However, Maria was communicative when we arrived and flexible about our departure which was great. This could be an excellent place.
