The apartment was perfect for our needs on a short break to this wonderful city. It is within walking distance ( we were two 70+ couples ) of the Prado, the Reina Sofia and the Thyssen Bornemisza art galleries. there are also two beautiful parks close by when you want to escape from the bustle of the streets. The Metro and main line railway stations are close by giving easy access to the rest of the city. If your an art lover, don't miss the Sorolla Museum, beautiful paintings full of light. After a day spent seeing the sights it was great to return to the cool of this smart, air conditioned apartment.
