Good location. Stayed with 2 children and was a little cramped. Would be perfect for couple who need a base to explore central Madrid. Air conditioning was a bonus as madrid was very hot.
We liked this property a lot, and wouldâve given it five stars, but the mattresses were not very good, which made the sleeping part not so good. Both my husband and my daughter said each morning that they didnât get much sleep because of it. I however did not experience the same and my sleep was OK. again, everything else was great!
Small but cozy âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠgreat location to top attractions
The washing machine wasnât hooked up so we had to use a laundromat which was a minute walk from the unit. Other than that, we found the location very accessible to the Gran Via, Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, Mercado de San Miguel, the Prado, the Palacio Real, a great Cuban restaurant - La Negra Tomasa, and most of all we felt like we were residents of the neighborhood. The best part of it was that we walked everywhere. And if you want to take a taxi or jump on the Metro - no problem. A taxi stand is 2 minutes away and youâre a 3-4 minute walk to the Tribunal metro.
Located in central Madrid, 5 mins walk to Gran Via and public transport. If you like the little streets and laneways of the city, then you'll love where this property is located. Plenty of cafe's and bars in the roads around this property. Within walking distance to most of the main attractions Madrid has to offer (Royal Palace, Almudena Cathedral, Plaza Mayor, San Miguel market etc).
So, Location wise 5 stars!
Relatively smaller property, may be that's how the average houses in Madrid are - not sure.
Host organised late check in, which was great. Very much appreciated!
Things that could have helped:
Second bedroom with sofa bed didn't have a blanket/duna. Couldn't get a response from the host for 2 days to find it.
A kettle and few tea bags/coffee would have helped when we arrived after a long journey.
Things to note :
If you turn the electric cook top on to cook or boil water while the airconditioner/heater is on, the power goes off. We had to turn the main switch on the switch board off and on a few times. So, don't use them both at the same time, looks like an overload issue.
Hemos estado un par de noches, la ubicaciĂłn super bien a 10 minutos de muchos sitios destacados. El apartamento, calidad precio estĂĄ bien, silencioso y completo. El sofa-cama no muy cĂłmodo , pero volverĂa a escoger este apartamento. Denis el anfitriĂłn disponible todo el tiempo
