This apartment has been absolutely ideal for me and I do not believe I could have chosen anywhere more suitable for my extended stay in Madrid. It is in a good, fairly quiet part of Madrid (Ibiza) but is very close to Retiro Park (which is a very large, fine park) and fairly close to the centre of Madrid (Metro station is 5 -10 minutes walk or if you're feeling energetic the centre is about 30 minutes walk). It is a large, traditional but well-appointed Spanish apartment and has a very 'homely' feel to it due to the landlady (Pilar) having lived here for many years (over 30 years I believe) and having brought her sons up here. Despite her lack of English (although she is studying it) Pilar has been very friendly and accommodating and I have felt very comfortable here. The bedroom is of an adequate size (although being 6'5" I could do with a slightly bigger bed!) with a decent sized built-in wardrobe and a good sized desk which has been very useful.

I can highly recommend this apartment for a stay in Madrid and echo the previous reviews. I am sure if you stay here, you will be as satisfied as I have been.
