A stylish and spotless apartment in a cool neighbourhood. Maria and Jesus were always responsive and attentive to our needs and our questions about how to use the radiant stovetop (we use gas at home) and the air conditioning, but there was too much back and forth communication that wasted precious time on both sides, and clear written instructions for all aspects of the flat would be helpful for future guests. Also, while the visual design of the space is really elegant, the kitchen space is not ergonomically conducive to very much cooking, so plan to eat out in one of the many great spots in Madrid. Construction noise from renovations to the building was periodically present during the day, but again that wouldn’t be a problem if you’re out sightseeing and it never went on later than late afternoon. Overall, good value and a nice, quiet place (in the evenings) to retreat to after the wonderful stimulations of this amazing city!
