This is apartment is in a very convenient location. It is steps to the Metro and a short walk to Plaza Mayor and Puerto del Sol. It was very easy to get around the city from this location. There was a grocery store about a block away. The apartment is very clean, modern, and comfortable. We were able to cook and do laundry easily. Jose was very helpful in providing us with maps and directions to main sightseeing activities. However, because it is in the middle of a large city, it was noisy at night so I recommend bringing ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Otherwise, it was a wonderful stay.
