We had a wonderful stay at Soraya's apartment! The location can't be beat and was easily the highlight of the stay. You can open the windows and listen to the passing crowds or people watch all afternoon. We were worried the noise would keep us awake, but once the windows are closed it becomes background noise and is not intrusive. The area felt very safe and was central to all destinations that we wanted to see in Madrid. We didn't even use the metro; everything was within walking distance. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Don't overlook the restaurant downstairs; we enjoyed delicious sangria and a meal at sunset and it was perfect!
