Paula's place is close to Atocha train station, the metro and several main museums, but the street is quiet (narrow). Lots of great restaurants close by, even next door. It's an ideal launching spot to explore the city. One tip: the air conditioning/heating unit that is mounted close to the ceiling has a large LED display to show the selected temperature. If you don't want it brightly illuminating the room while you try to sleep, there is a "LED" button on the remote that turns it off.
