Al's studio apartment was fantastic and I would highly recommend it to anybody based on the great location, bright and comfortable atmosphere and the knowledge of Al himself! We stayed in the apartment in September (just in the middle of the heatwave) so the modern air conditioning was brilliant. The location is less than a 5 minute walk from Gran Via, which is the Main Street for shopping and great restaurants. With its central location it's also within walking distance of all museums, parks and public transport(only a 5 minute walk from a metro station, which connects to the airport). The apartment itself is very spacious and incredibly comfortable. The memory foam mattress and quiet street meant we got a great sleep every night! Al was incredibly knowledgable of the area and gave us a great list of recommended attractions to see and places to eat. He also greeted is with a bottle of wine and a fully stocked kitchen and fridge. Overall a great experience and we will be returning shortly!
