Great apartment! Absolutely wonderful location. I’ve lived in Madrid on various occasions, and Malasaña – where Miguel’s apartment is – is my favorite neighborhood. As other reviewers have noted, the area is really lively (it's *the* Madrid neighborhood for nightlife), but the apartment is remarkably quiet. In addition to the bars, restaurants, and shops, the neighborhood has playgrounds and other great amenities for kids. Miguel was an excellent host, and my family (including my two-year-old daughter) and I really liked the apartment.
