We had a great stay at Michelle's place. We were 5 adults traveling through Spain, and Michelle's place offered so much room for all of us. We enjoyed the huge common space but also being able to retreat to our own rooms, which both offered privacy. This place is big! Kitchen is really nice and spacious (and we didn't notice any smell which I saw in other reviews). The place is perfectly situated in the center part of Madrid. You are on a very busy street, but noise at night is not a problem. The patio overlooking the street is a great place to enjoy coffee and people watch. Would definitely come back.
