Overall, this was a good place for our 3 day visit to Madrid. The best features of the apartment are the comfy beds (one double, one single), and the clean and very functional bathroom. It was also quiet, so great for sleeping. With a teensy bit of sleuthing, we found exceptional restaurants within a 5 to 10 minute walk. Located away from the center of things, it was walkable to Retiro Park and other attractions, and very readily accessible by bus or metro, both of which had stops nearby. Downsides of the apartment were the kitchen, which lacked good lighting and sufficient cooking utensils and pots to cook a real meal (so not great for a long stay), and lightbulbs that were out in the living room (though still pretty well lighted), no information with emergency numbers or restaurant options. Host was responsive, but not in Madrid, so relied on cleaning agency for backup. Be sure the key to the front door works well, and that you know the trick, when you check in.
