Manuel was absolutely awesome! He provided us with really helpful tips and was VERY quick to respond to all our questions with relevant information and/or links. I agree with one of the reviews below that the apartment is even more beautiful than the photos! It is 5 minutes walk to the botanic gardens and Museo De Prado and another 5 more minutes to El Palacio de Cristal. We were able to walk everywhere!! It is a great apartment, very spacious, not your typical European small apartment where you are very cramped (not complaining, I love those types of places to but it is nice to have all the room in the word). Every room, including the bathrooms are very spacious. It is walking distance from train station if you want to catch a train but it is also very close to everything (you can easily walk it). It was perfectly clean and everything was supplied! It is well worth the money, you won’t be disappointed! Read the check-in information that Manuel sends you very closely, he covers everything that you can possibly think off there.
