The apartment was exactly as described; however, be forewarned that the weary traveler can expect to climb 85 stairs to reach the place. The location in Plaza Santa Ana was perfect for seeing the city, just a stones throw from Plaza Del Sol and the heart of Madrid. The street does get a bit loud at night with a plethora of bars and restaurants. My only complaint is the hot water situation. The unit has only a 75 liter tank which runs out fast--especially if you like hot (not warm) showers. I found that my wife and I could not both shower before the supply ran out forcing us to segment between mornings and evenings. Otherwise, great stay.
