We like this apartment as our base for exploring Madrid. 3 separate bedrooms with comfortable beds, and a large central kitchen/dining area. Secure, with solid doors and locks. Private patio out back with table & chairs under a delighful tree! Practical kitchen with a laundry washer. Bathroom is small, but adequate for 4 adults. We really like the area - it's a local residential area a short walk to a main street, and with a metro station, so it's easy to get anywhere in Madrid from here. The locals gather in nearby square, and it's a friendly vibe. The nearby river path is a delightful park full of interest and birds! Shops, bars and restaurants start only a few minutes away. Our host was easy to contact, and helped us with two minor matters. Met our objectives well!
