The location is great - easy walking access to the main areas of the city center, and Hop on Hop Off tour bus stops nearby. Small grocery stores and restaurants right in the neighborhood. We did have a bit of trouble finding the exact address and some confusion about the house number vs. apt. number. The closest Metro station (Grand Via) is less than a block away and is currently under construction and not open. As of late December 2019 the building is also undergoing renovations so your window view is scaffolding. Those are simply unfortunate circumstances beyond the owners control. The room itself and amenities are as described and as you see in the photos. Note the shower is small and you need to hold the shower wand in order for water not to spray everywhere -AND it is only fair to mention that is how it is pictured in the listing. Just not used to having to hold a shower wand. As others have mentioned - the walls are not very sound proof. We could clearly hear every word our neighbors said, along with cupboards and late night arrivals home. A positive - If we had questions we always got a quick response from our host. Atocha the main train station in Madrid also has very reasonably priced luggage lockers if you are arriving or leaving from this destination and only 1-2 Metro stops away from this apartment.
