Alicia’s flat is located in the middle of everything, metro station is 50 meters away so you can commute everywhere and take your day trips fast and come back faster. You can take the metro and be at the train or bus station in 10 minutes to go to Toledo, Segovia, Avila and other cities. If you are a walker, you can divide downtown Madrid in 2 halves and walk one day to the right and one day to the left and visit all attractions and restaurants. The flamenco show at Torres Bermejas is 2 blocks away and it is something you have to do in Spain, plus the show is espectacular. Coffe bars, mall and all kind of stores are next door, including Gran Via. The flat is comfortable with nice views, but it’s busy around most of the day. After walking all day you should sleep like a baby anyway. Alicia is very accommodating for checking in and out. I will definitely recommend the place, just don’t expect a 4 stars hotel.
