Wow, what can we say about this gorgeous apartment? It is located right where all the action is happening, but remains pretty quiet since it is on the 5th floor (no elevator, be aware, but you will get your daily exercise!;-)) Literally a 1 minute walk to Plaza Mayor. You can look through your window (there's a tiny miniature balcony) and you have a beautiful view, look down and you see the people eating tapas and drinking wine, having fun. Close to many supermarkets (Dia, Carrefour Express, Corte Ingles) and walking distance to all the museums, restaurants, etc. you may want to go to. We stayed a whole week and didn't have to take the metro/bus at all because it's so close to everything. The actual apartment is so comfortable and has a cozy/modern boho-chic vibe. The colours of the walls, the little details and decorations really make it feel like home. We were able to cook our own meals and have dinner at the table, we relaxed on the couch in the living room, we slept very well in the bedroom (a tinyyyy (TINSY) bit stuffy/hot depending on how hot the day was, but generally okay, could use a fan). Lots of closet space and so many hangers, we were able to empty our backpacks and actually hang our clothes and feel like we were at home (and not constantly digging through our backpacks to find our stuff). Wifi works great, sometimes not so great but wasn't really a problem. Amazing equipment, tea kettle/stove/oven/nice fridge/coffee machine/food processor/immersion blender... So many things! Also a washing machine AND a dryer!! And a clotheshorse. Beautiful bathroom, amazing shower... Honestly it was so hard to leave. But we had to, and life goes on! We never met Felipe and Pilar but they were extremely responsive and kind/friendly via messaging on airbnb. A nice woman who works with them greeted us at the apartment. It's a beautiful old building on calle Toledo, wooden stairs to go up to the apartment, and nice friendly people we crossed paths with. Anyway, don't hesitate to book this place! Gracias Felipe y Pilar. :)
