Israel's apartment is very clean and perfectly located in a centralized location of Madrid (Neighborhood of Sol). The downside to this apartment is that it's on the 2nd floor (1st floor European) and therefore you do not have much privacy as many people walking by and easily look into the apartment if the curtain isn't closed (which is inconvenient during the day). The street the apartment is on is very, very busy and therefore I warn people who have difficulty falling asleep with loud surrounding noises. It was unfortunate that there was much construction going on directly in front of the unit when we stay there as it made it difficult to access and difficult to rest. Besides those inconveniences, the bed we slept on was really firm but perhaps that's a European preference (certainly not an American one). The sliding door to the bathroom does not close all the way and does not lock for privacy. The toilet also made a lot of noise due to running water and I couldn't find a way to fix it. All in all, if you're sensitive to loud noises and find it hard to sleep through that, this would not be the best choice for you. But, if you don't mind that, then the location is what makes this place shine. You can't beat how close you are to everything Sol has to offer.
