An efficient and well located apartment - La Latina is a lovely area and there were a number of great shops and restaurants within seconds of this place. The host was usually reachable, though never responded to messages on Airbnb and only some WhatsApp messages. They were m, however, accommodating to our early check in and late checkout which we really appreciated.
It should be noted that this apartment is not fully air conditioned despite the listing. There is 1, noticeably weak, split system wall unit in the common area but no units in the bedrooms. Even when we left all the bedroom doors open at night (this, in and of itself, is inconvenient / weird, but we were willing to try anything to be cool), the one wall unit was nowhere near sufficient to keep the apartment cool. We were, simply put, very hot at night, as is to be expected in Madrid in July. We booked this apartment specifically because AC was one of our criteria, so it was disappointing that we had to sleep in discomfort because of a misleading / inaccurate representation of what we were getting in the listing.
Beyond that, we were awakened several mornings my construction in units above us. This is out of the control of the host, but a fact that nonetheless that made our stay less-than-restful.
