Ramon's place is very centrally located, near great restaurants and in leisurely walking distance from museums and historical landmarks. Even in November, we noticed that Plaza Santa Ana, as well as entire downtown Madrid, can be a very lively place, especially in the early & late evening hours when it attracts both locals and tourists who gather to chat and dine in all the restaurants and pubs located nearby. In our opinion, Ramon's apartment windows and balcony door have good insulation to minimize any outside noise that may potentially bother a light sleeper. Inside the building, it was very quiet and peaceful. Beds, including a futon in the living room, were nice and comfortable. Kitchen area was bright and cozy. Overall, a great stay! Thanks Ramon!
