The apartment is on a small, quiet street near a couple of metro stations. You can get coffee in the morning at a couple of local cafes. Within about 20 minutes, you can walk to the Plaza Mayor, the Prado Museum or the Atocha Train Station. We found some very good restaurants (Uskar and Atrapallada) within a 5 min walk.
Took advantage of the in apartment washing machine.
Due to the high ceilings, the apartment feels much larger than it really is. We were very happy with everything associated with this rental. Really a great place, and Madrid is a great walking city.
