This is our second visit to Sylvia's flat and we enjoyed it as much as the first time. The location fits our desires to have something near El Retiro but in a more quiet area of Madrid than the central tourist areas. Its easy to walk across the Retiro to get to the centre or take the nearby Ibiza metro. There's a supermarket on the street as well as a market and nearby food and wine stores on Calle Dr Esquerdo.
