I fell in love with Madrid thanks to this wonderfully located apartment. Barrio de las Letras is a terrific, safe neighborhood with great restaurants and cafes within a block or two of the apartment. So fun to walk around the 'hood, also very close to Sol and the heart of the city. The apartment itself is small but very comfortable and has everything you need to make your stay enjoyable (eg. Nespresso maker). The elevator makes it easy to get your things into the apartment. Rotem is very responsive to all messages and requests. I would love to return to her place sometime soon, in fact I wish I owned that apartment it is so great:)
Don't miss: the tostas at Alimentacion Quiroga on Huertas, the french pastries and coffee at Brown Bear on Calle de León (Rotem recco), the tacos al pastor at Mexcalista on Calle de León, and the most amazing grilled octopus at Pulpería de Victoria (Rotem recco), and all the different food court vendors at Mercado San Antón on the second floor. I didn't want to leave!
