This apartment has it all: It's quiet (at least while we were here in December/January); the bedrooms are dark at night and the beds are very comfortable; and there are lots of eating options and a supermarket nearby. It's very close to everything -- la Puerta del Sol, Opera, Gran Via -- but not too close! The kitchen is very well equipped. The apartment is large by Spanish standards. Above all, host Soledadresponded to any questions promptly and was wonderfully friendly (so was manager Tina!). We would certainly stay here again.
