This place is an absolute jewel and we could hardly believe our luck in getting it on short notice! The view of the Plaza de Toros is to die for, the neighborhood has every amenity, and it's right across the street from the Ventas metro station. The apartment itself is a wonderfully organized space with a very good sized closet, a huge bathtub and a combo washer/dryer (yes, in Madrid!) Lidia, our host, was super friendly and helpful. I do speak Spanish, so that was helpful. This was a fantastic place to spend the last few days of our trip to Spain and we'd go back to Lidia's place in a heartbeat!
