This place is really a gem. I would give it 6 or 7 stars if possible. Ours was a family trip wanting to know Madrid and surroundings. This is the perfect launch pad. The location couldn't be better either to stay and walk around Madrid, visit museums or hop on a train for a quick out of town visit. Literally just steps from El Prado, El Retiro, Reina Sophia, Atocha station, El Sol, Plaza Mayor and hundreds of great places to eat or have a glass or two. The apartment itself is very comfortable modernly furnished in the Euro-Scandinavian style and very clean. It is a place where someone could stay either for a night or many weeks. If I could afford my own place in Madrid it would look exactly like that. It really checked all the marks for our family and I don't say that lightly. The host is very responsive and very helpful. This place will be our first option for Madrid going forward.
