This was a great place to stay in the center of Madrid. I was able to cook, relax and sleep well in this cozy apartment. It was easy to walk to all the main attractions such as parks and museums. The neighbours were quiet and friendly when I saw them in the hall way. There are two flights of stairs to get to the apartment but I would think most people could manage this. Emilio was very responsive to my questions about the apartment, Madrid and the neighbourhood in general. He offered lots of places (with a map!) to go to considering I had never been to Madrid before which was very reassuring. I would stay here again in a heart beat, thanks Emilio!
