The place is sleek and modern but with character. The location is ideal—close to Sol and Gran Via, we were able to walk everywhere! We are a family of 3 generations, and the apartment worked well for our elderly parents AND teenager. (Our parents slept in the back room as it was the most quiet) The street the apartment is on is pedestrian only, like many in central Madrid—we love it; just be prepared for a short walk with your luggage.
