This is a rare instance where the apartment is actually better in reality than the description or the pictures on AirBNB. It is stylish, comfortable and almost perfect condition - the living room is artfully decorated and airy with two nice balcony windows - a fully equipped kitchen, and a comfortable work niche (perfect for business travelers like me). The bedroom was actually Quiet - windows on an inner courtyard - and graced with a relaxing jacuzzi that was a welcome respite at end of day. I slept better here than I have in weeks. The apartment is located in a “good” building in an area of the city that’s like Madrid’s “upper west side” - but with the more funky Latina area as well as the major museums only a 20 minute metro away by metro. But don’t get me wrong - there are plenty of swank bars, restaurants and cafes right nearby, including a great Italian restaurant just outside the building door. For travelers that appreciate being in the center of the city but want a bit more comfort and space, this is perfect - and Vanessa was a great host too! Thanks Vanessa!
