The apartment is in a residential location and quiet. High class fit out and cleanliness was excellent. A short walk to the restaurants, bars, markets etc and museums, palace cathedral again all within walking distance if you are fit enough. Taxis/buses available within 50 metres. Highly recommended for a visit to Madrid and Paula was most helpful by mobile/text throughout our stay. Suggestion - If you plan to eat out evenings be prepared to have to wait for a table as all bars/restaurants very busy. Suggest you make friends with the bar staff the night before to guarantee a reservation.
