A very centrally located flat in a very lively and interesting neighborhood. But, as the windows face inward to the courtyard you do not hear the noise from the merry-after-midnight crowd on the streets of Lavapies. You reach the excellent underground train system of Madrid 100 meters from the flat. You are stones throw away from Porta del Sol, Plaza Major and all the rest that constitutes the center of Madrid. Bottom line, close to communication and close to the center! Excellent both for week-end traveller and the one that stays a while for work like I did.

The museums and the Teater Real are within walking distance. Prado is of cause a must.

The flat it self is well equipped and very enjoyable. You have to climb up to the bed so it does not suit those that have some problems with that.

Iaia has prepared a very nice and useful guide to Madrid full of small tidbits that get you ahead of all the other first time visitors.

I can only warmly recommend this flat.
