The apartment was big and airy with lots of room for eight people to have private time and together time. We were there for our sister's 60th birthday and the apartment and the responsiveness of the host made it so lovely for all of us. We had had a very bad experience in the middle of the night when we arrived in Madrid. In desperation I booked the Casa Mia apartment at 4:00 am and was told we could move in at 9:00 am. The host was very responsive and was available to help at any time. The place was very clean with lots of towels and other necessities. The apartment was located on a quiet street but there was plenty of action with stores and restaurants very close by. it was a truly wonderful experience and I would certainly highly recommend staying there if you are visiting Madrid, which incidentally, is a lovely, colorful, friendly city. It was also great to have separate air conditioning units in the rooms so that each person could adjust their own climate to their own taste which unexpectedly turned out to be important. A great experience all around.
