This apartment is within walking distance of many of the major attractions; Real Palace, Prado Museum. The area has a vibrant nightlife with many good restaurants. The apartment however is very quiet. Many bars in the area play live music, such as Central (excellent jazz). Gorete's apartment is very welcoming, comfortable and clean, with very helpful staff. It truly is a home away from home in the centre of Spain's magnificent capital. Gorete provided us with a detailed summary of what to do prior to arrival and was available to answer any questions. She was a wonderful host!
