The apartment is in a superb location. Very close to Plaza Major and the Royal Palace, very close to the Metro station that is a couple of stops from the main train station and the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum, Prado Museum and Reina Sofía Art Centre. It was clean, well-appointed and the beds were comfortable. A few suggestions: hot water needs some work. It kept running lukewarm/cold after one quick shower. Discussed it with the management company, but could not get it resolved. This would be a problem if more than 2 people used the apartment. There was a fair amount of construction in the open area, which was a bit loud in the morning. Also, mentioned the odor in the toilet when we arrived. It went away (mostly) but came back a couple of times. Again, disappeared after a couple of flushes. Also, we needed more than one face/bath towel (each) for the week but we went to the management company office and picked up more. Would have been good to have them in the apartment from the outset. Overall, it was a good experience and you really can't ask for a better location. The suggestions here can be easily remedied.
