Isabel was a great host. She was very nice and quick to respond when we had an inquiry. The listing and pictures were accurate. We stayed at the apartment for a month and were very comfortable and sad to leave. It had everything that we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Heating was great. We didn't hear the neighbours, but we did hear the garbage truck, but that wouldn't stop us from staying there again. The location was great. We walked everywhere that we wanted to go except taking taxis to and from the airport and bus station. After checking out the other neighbourhoods, we were very happy with our choice to stay in Malasana.
