* Pros:
Amazing location for having plenty of space inside and close to so much in an amazing neighborhood. And 5 balconies! There are sound proofing black out shades which don’t exist everywhere and are a blessing if you have a small baby and want to sleep during the nightlife (but earplugs might help on certain nights). Minty Host is very responsive and professional; they allowed us to use their office when we came early and needed to drop our luggage. They also rescued our phone which we accidentally left in the taxi (which they helpfully arrange for you). Air conditioning works like a charm.
* Cons:
During our stay, the floors were not as clean as expected; a crawling baby will discover just how clean a place really is and we discovered many stray hairs. The key and lock to the building are frequently unreliable and the door takes a while to open. The sofa is a pullout bed, but very uncomfortable to just sit on as a sofa. The ironing board during our stay was missing a cover rendering it virtually unusable. Also, if you’re staying longer than a handful of days, be prepared to get some of your own toiletries; for example Minty provides a minimal amount of toilet paper, soap, shampoo, etc. (Luckily several convenience stores are a couple minutes walk away).
* Overall:
Good value for a great location where you’ll be close to everything for an exciting experience in Madrid!
