Stylish loft -style apartment, pied de Terre, La Hortaleza in Madrid is a humble area full of South American traditional shops and restaurants, it's safe and well connected and so authentic. Pinar del Rey and Anastro nearby are great for strolling and eating far away from the centre. The metro takes you to the centre in 10 mins and the bus in 20. It was a treat staying in this lovely apartment, we'll sure be back.
