Great small apartment and perfect location. Nice place around, good view from the window.
Living room with a kitchen stand, large couch and two small balconies, small bedroom just bed fit, shower, space for luggage.
Location close to anything - 3-5 minutes walk to subway (Noviciado) and then few stops to Banco de España station, with Prado and Thyssen-Bornemisa museums. Alternatively about 30 min if you decide just walk.
It takes a time to realize how to buy a card in the subway(about 4.5€), but then you pay 1.5€ for the one way trip just adding value to the card.
On the subway to the airport about 35 minutes (check in advance is it T4 or T1-2-3 terminal as it different stops, extra pay, and about 6-8 min longer), so you don't need a taxi at all.
Few shops on the street, you can buy food or drinks, drugstore, few bars, and restaurants just near the corner. At the evening they put tables outside on the plaza, pretty friendly environment. Good for the company. Actually better to eat there than other places as it just a step from an apartment. Restaurant inexpensive, and work late, probably up to midnight.
All amenities available, more than expected, wine glasses, kitchenware, a/c, refrigerator, and washer. All new and clean.
Kitchen enough to cook your meal, frying pans, and Bialetti coffee maker plus all utensils. Even corkscrew (important thing!) and good knifes to slice salami and cheese.
When I come in it was the bottle of cold water in the refrigerator, what was helpful. All stuff from IKEA, new and nice.
Kind of busy street at night, but this not a problem at all, as a double bed inside the apartment in separate sub-room (without windows). Just close the balcony door, turn A/C on and go to sleep.
Bed comfortable and big enough.
To dry your shirts you can use rope behind the window, inside the inner patio. Unusual for Americans but widely used in Spain.
It looks like whole building rented for the tourists as some apartments were not occupied. Another thing you need to expect - pretty high floors and apartment located upstairs, on fourth (fifth?) floor with the kind of narrow stairs. No elevator, so it can be some difficulties with the heavy or large luggage. As a good exercise.
Salvador very kind and helpful, excellent communications and very promptly react on all requests. I need a later checkout, as my flight was late and it was not a problem. Very positive experience. A++.
