The apartment is in a great location - short walk from Madrid's central plazas close to lots off good restaurants. It is next door to an awesome, friendly coffee shop and multiple great bakeries which makes for easy breakfasts. The living room has gorgeous French doors that open onto balconies that overlook the nearby plaza which is fun. As it was cold, we kept the doors closed at night and had no issues with noise. The apartment itself is very spacious. We had 5 adults and there was plenty of space for everyone. There are 2 bathrooms but you do have to be careful to not use up all the hot water if everyone wants to shower at the same time as hot water tanks tend to be smaller here than where we come from. The host was wonderful - she was extremely patient with us as our arrival time kept changing and gave clear instructions on how to check-in. She also gave us great recommendations for restaurants, etc. Overall, highly recommend this stay!
