Miriam's place couldn't have been in a better location. You can easily walk everywhere from the Palace to Gran Via, Plaza Mayor, El Retiro Park amongst many other amazing places. With that being said, if you would rather go underground, there are multiple metro stations within a 5 minute walk. There are tons of cafes, bars, and restaurants in the neighborhood and while you are in the midst of it all, you wouldn't know due to how peaceful the apartment is. My husband and I were there for work and fun and the wifi was on point. There is bonus bedroom so when we both had work calls we were able to be in separate spaces which helped a ton.
Miriam went above and beyond her host duties. She was flexible with check in, immediately responded to any questions we had and helped us extend our stay when we needed to.
The space is warm and welcoming with great views of spanish rooftops from our living area kitchens. Sunsets and sunrises were beautiful. After 18 days staying here we truly felt of it as "home". I would strongly suggest staying here if you are looking for the same.
