Apartment is located in a great spot right in the heart of Grand Via next to a McDonald’s and Tommy Mel’s even across from a Starbucks. The views from the balcony are stunning for sure. It’s a perfect place to relax after some sight seeing with a big smart tv w/ Netflix.
I did have 3 issues with the apartment. It’s understandable that an apartment in this location is small but the size of the bathroom was incredibly small. To get in the shower I had to turn sideways and squeeze by the sink. Never had a bathroom that small. The wooden floors had a pretty sizable bump that was covered by a rug. My wife almost fell not realizing it was there. Lastly we went during a very cold time in Madrid. A time where it was snowing for the first time in years. To heat the apartment we had two small space heaters, one of which kept clicking and sparking. My wife was very worried but we needed it to stay warm so we kept using it. There are boilers in the apartment as well but they didn’t seem to be very effective. Even when they were on they weren’t very hot. So when we slept the space heater provided us very dry hot air. It was hard to breathe at times but it was that or freeze at night.
That all said we spent a lot of time in the apartment and felt comfortable the entire time. I’d recommend this place to friends.
Oh also if you are staying here I recommend being your own towels. The ones provided were very stiff and clearly very used.
