This apartment met all our needs, and is a great location for the part of Madrid we wanted to explore. we walked to the Prado museum and very much enjoyed the evening scene along the way. we also used the Metro, which was a great value, and very clean and safe. The apartment is comfortable for two. plenty of hot water, and the functional kitchen has all essentials. Furnishings are a bit dated though, and the apartment is in need of some decluttering. I told the host she should replace the bed. All in all this placed worked well for us, but I think it was a bit over priced.
