We had a very positive experience in the a Atocha apartment. The photographs and description are accurate, and indeed, it’s more spacious than we expected. Everybody worked and the two beds were comfortable, I love the third bed as a fold up bed which we didn’t try. As others have noted, the place needs an update and the furniture has certainly been around, but this is reflected in the cost which would certainly be higher if the unit was updated. It didn’t bother us. Communication was excellent And we were met on site and given a walk-through at a good description of the area. The location is perfect. Just across the street is a major market, and you with in walking distance of the south bus station and a Atocha train station. The Reina Sofia is 15 minutes walk away and the Prado another 10. Just a few blocks away is Delicias commuter train station has a direct and cheap link with terminal four at the airport.
All in all, this is a great place to stay in Madrid.
