We had a wonderful weekend in Syria and Greece apartments. My wife and I stayed in Syria while our teenage daughter was in the Greece bedroom.
The location is tremendous: you get the invigorating buzz of everyone in the square below but from the ‘far side’ so it never becomes too loud. It’s less than a 10 minute walk to Sol or Plaza Mayor, a minute from the Palace, with loads of places to eat, drink and shop.
We found the directions clear (although we were coming from airport T1 so how to get there is slightly different from the instructions we were given from T4 and we got lost when the metro broke down! Our fault entirely, we’d recommend getting a taxi for €30 if there are a few of you). Check in was very straight forward.
The apartments were immaculately clean and beautiful. Really quirky design with Juliet balconies over looking the plaza. There were drinks in the fridge and snacks, so it was a wonderful welcome.
The only reason for a 4 rating rather than 5 was that we found some of the decorations a little tired and in need of a kick of paint. One of the aircon units didn’t work (although it wasn’t too hot so we were ok) and we found the shower a tricky to operate. It was a really a 4.6 or 4.7 but for a 5 rating things need to be closer to perfect.
Having said that we would return at the drop off a hat. I’d highly recommend Felipe’s apartment(s) and hope he’ll let us return again in the future!
