Great place to stay in Madrid, the area is calm yet close to everything,you have the metro station close to you but you can also walk to a lot of places. Palacio real and plaza de España are basically your back yard. The apartment itself is beautiful comfortable and with many amenities. We appreciated the kitchen had condiments( and oil and lots of pots ect),the sounds system, and the common area was super comfy to decompress and enjoy wine. John was a great host easy to reach and he took great care of us, he truly went above and beyond. I would a 100%recommend staying here.
