We enjoyed our four night stay. The location was superb for our visit. It is close to the 3 major art museums, a 12 minute walk from Atocha train station and surrounded by dozens of excellent restaurants. The hosts provided us with a list of restaurants to dine in and everyone we tried was a place that we wanted to revisit to sample more of the menu. We walked to Gran Via, the Royal Palace and Foundacion MAPFRE, with its 65 Joan Miro works, from this location. No taxi was needed.
