This attic apartment is located in a gorgeous old multi-storied building with a grand marble entrance and a vintage lift. The location couldn’t be any better: a 5-minute walk from Puerta del Sol or Prado Miseum, 10-15 minutes away from a dozen other museums, attractions and parks. We never used the metro, everything was walkable.
The apartment has 2 bedrooms, both open into the living-room. And although we had a certain lack of privacy, because our son was sleeping in the living-room, we were happy with the apartment! All the furniture is new and comfortable, the small shower perfectly usable and not damp, all cooking and catering necessities there, plus some fruit and cupcakes for our first breakfast.
Mar is certainly the best host we have had over many years of using Airbnb! She responded to messages very quickly, turned up very quickly to meet us, she was prepared and welcoming: not only had the maps, booklets and a special printout with the best places to eat, but also actually sat down and “walked” us through the main attractions, telling us why they are so important to Spanish people and the citizens of Madrid. After that, it was really easy for us to plan our days and not miss anything!
We are happy to have met Mar and stayed at her apartment, and look forward to coming back and staying there again!
