Comfortably situated near the Retiro park, a bustling shopping street and Subway station Ibiza, this apartment was a great place for me, my girlfriend and our two kids (2 and 4) to explore Madrid and experience the Spanish way of life. For lunch, dinner or grocceries, all we had to do was walk no more than 200 meters to find a super market, bakery, maket place or restaurant.

We were incredibly pleased to find a spacious, beautifully renovated apartment with comfortable beds, a good bathroom and ample kitchen amenities. It has a great atmosphere. In order to provide the entire living-dining space with light, a glass partition was designed that separated any cooking noises/smells from the rest of the apartment without blocking light. A smart and elegant solution.

The apartment is very quiet, especially at night.

Worth mentioning are the toys that are present in the apartment, as well as the Denon stereo set (you can connect your tablet/smart phone to the stereo using the cable). On top of all the more standard appliances that are already available in the apartment, they are a real bonus.

The host Sylvia is great. Our youngest son broke the television set ten minutes after we arrived in the apartment. This matter was resolved professionally. Sylvia, our insurance company and AIRBNB all helped to make this incident have as little impact on our stay as possible.

If we ever come back to Madrid, we will defenitely be staying in this apartment again.
