Comfortable and pretty large apartment in a very convenient location if you want to discover Madrid by foot - close to Palacio Real, Plaza Mayor, plaza de España, the river, etc. but in a lively and authentic neighborhood where you can find everything you need. You can sometimes hear the upstairs neighbors, but no noise comes from the street, which ensures good night sleeps. No luxury in the apartment but you'll find everything you need to cook, wash clothes, etc. Claudia and her mother have been very easy to communicate with, flexible for check in and check out and they had also left us food - which was perfect as we arrived late on the first night and without dinner! Overall a very good stay with my family, muchas gracias!!
