We had a lovely time in Madrid and the apartment had a perfect location so we didn't take to subway or taxi, just walked around the beautiful city. Paula that met us at the apartment was really friendly and was giving us suggestions on restaurants, things to see and nice areas to visit. It was easy to take a taxi from/to the airport. We also liked how they had furnished and decorated the apartment. It is the perfect apartment to explore Madrid, see you next time. :-)
