The apartment is in a great location. 5 mins walk from the main railway station with frequent trains to and from the airport. Another short walk takes you to the metro with only 3 stops to the centre of town. The apartment was spotlessly clean with plenty of towels etc (and even shampoo and shower gel). The girls were very helpful with regard to places to see and where to eat. The first night we went to a small tapas bar round the corner from the apartment that they recommended and discovered you can still eat and drink well for 4 people for only 42 euros !! It's a great apartment for a stay in Madrid.
