I stayed in La Burhadilla Encantada for 2 entire months and would not hesitate to stay there again!
Silvia is a very good host. Before booking, I had a couple of questions and she always responded very quickly. During my stay, she always made sure that I had everything I needed and gave me recommendations what to do etc. Whenever there was a problem (air con failed once - but now it`s working fine again) she was very quick in finding solutions.
The apartment has the perfect size for 2 persons. It is well equipped with everything you could need: pans, pots, cutlery, fridge, oven, stove, microwave and even a washing maschine. The decoration and the colourful walls give the flat a cozy appearance and make you feel like home immediately.
To enter the flat you have to crouch a little because the entrance area/sleeping room has a low ceiling - but you will get used to it pretty fast. As soon as you have reached the main room/living room (where I also slept most of the time) the ceiling is high. The living area is very spacious. In the bathroom you can stand straight as well - the only thing is that you have to shower while sitting. The Wifi is fast and the flat has a TV with all important channels.
The flat is located very central in Madrid. The street itself is more or less quiet, but if you walk less than one minute, you will find a lot of bars, restaurants, supermarkets and everything you could possibly need.
The nearest Metro station (Lavapies) is in three minutes walking distance, another one (Anton Martín) about 7 minutes and the main train station (Atocha) about 10 minutes. You can also easily walk to all the tourist loactions in 10-20 minutes. If you like running: the Retiro park is just a couple of (running) minutes away and very lovely to run (or stroll or just relax).
I would definitively recommend this place!
