The location was very close to the metro station and also literally one street over from shopping. This area is great for food as well as a lot of places are within walking distance. Moreover, the apartment is quiet and located on the top floor of the building. Note that it is a walk-up and no lift. The apartment was quaint and had everything I needed. Simma was able to fulfill any needs I had and even offered me an itinerary for my stay in Madrid -- which was very helpful!
