Helen and Martin are terrific hosts, ready to answer any question or offer any recommendation. Their stylish apartment is right in the thick of things so we thoroughly enjoyed the street life from our balcony as we were getting ready to take on the day or night but with the thick door/windows closed and the air on, the noise was kept at bay for sleeping. Walking distance to everything. Comfortable, firm bed. We loved being in an historic building from the 1860’s. Make sure you go to Revuelta across the street for vermut and bacalao- we hope to do so again!
