The location of the flat is superb! Close to literally hundreds of restaurants, bars, and shops. Also very convenient to several Metro stops and the airport bus. Ricardo met me at the flat at the appointed time and gave me many suggestions on how best to enjoy beautiful Chueca and Madrid. The flat is clean, well appointed, cozy, and tastefully decorated -- I felt very much at home.
While Horteleza is a lively street, that is what one comes to Madrid to experience! That said, the sound-proofing windows and shutters provide more-than-adequate peaceful sleep.
The bathroom is comfortable and well equipped. The bed is very comfortable, and the linens are very good quality.
Ricardo checked in a couple days into the trip to ensure all was well -- a very sweet touch. You cannot go wrong with this flat.
