This apartment is such a great find. A group of 9 of us comfortably stayed here whilst in the city for Mad Cool Festival. The location is absolutely amazing - we bought a metro card but ended up walking most places! Plaza Mayor & Retiro Park are both within walking distance, as are multiple shops, restaurants and bars. Emilio was also a fantastic host - so communicative and was available throughout - we had an issue with the hairdryer and he replaced it within the day. A couple things I’d maybe note if you’re staying here:
- the apartment is up a flight of stairs on the 2nd floor, with no lift. It was a bit of a struggle with luggage but we only had to carry it up and down once.
- on the topic of luggage - we went for the closest station which was not step free, and it was a nightmare with luggage. We would recommend walking a little further from/to Sol where there are lifts, when you’re travelling with luggage.
- bring flip flops for the bathroom - the air conditioning is through the floor but it means they get cold and wet. That being said, Emilio provided us with loads of extra towels to lay down and there is the washing machine too.
This aside, the apartment is beautiful and stylish and has everything you’ll need. Book it if you can!
