This place is exactly what was promised: clean, comfortable, and in the heart of everything! Not only is Lavapies a great location, but it's also within walking distance of just about everything you will need. To our pleasant surprise, the apartment was only 2 blocks from the Embajadores bus hub where you can catch one of several buses going all over Madrid! Travelled in September, so we didn't use the AC; it was completely safe to sleep with the windows open. And Ricardo provides the most fantastic blankets perfect for the chilly mornings. Glad we stayed here!
