Ulises’ studio was exactly what I was looking for. In the heart of la Latina, with Cava Baja and the Mercado San Miguel a few minutes walk away, I could really immerse myself in Madrid’s tapas lifestyle! Viva la vida, a cute laid-back vegetarian buffet restaurant was also minutes away for those evenings when I needed something a bit healthier. To get to work, I had a 10 minutes walk to the Sol train station through Plaza Mayor, which put a smile on my face every morning.

The apartment itself has everything one needs, and is tastefully decorated (in particular, the pot plants give a nice green feel to it). It is amazingly quiet given the neighbourhood. The bed could be a bit comfier (maybe it is getting old), but I still slept very well. Ulises was both highly professional and very nice.
