The apartment is in a local's neighbourhood of Madrid and all the better for it, with the added benefit of being less then two minutes walk to the metro station and then less than 15 minutes to Sol station at the very centre of the city on the train. The apartment is spotlessly clean and a great place to come back to relax after a long day seeing the sights but with the option of some great very reasonably priced restaurants (and also supermarkets) nearby if you want to go out. Victor is a generous and attentive host always replying promptly to any questions I may have had. I travel a lot and would certainly return. If you like to live amongst the locals but with the city of your doorstep I highly recommend Victor's apartment.
