We had an excellent short stay in this property. The accomodations for 2 are perfect. Everything worked as stated. We had a little difficulty getting in due to extenuating circumstances but were still in before the check in time and communication was excellent. Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
This was the third time we stayed at this property, we love it. Itâs a nice apartment in a great location. Itâs walkable to all the attractions in the area with good restaurants and cafes nearby. You do get a little bit of street noise from things closing down but it has never bothered us.Hopefully we will be back again next year!
We traveled through Madrid on the way to a music festival in Malaga. Location was perfect for exploring on foot. Vibrant neighborhood close to museums and many restaurants. Very comfortable bed and living area/kitchen. Would stay here again!
We had a wonderful time in Madrid! The apartment was in a wonderful location. Many destinations are within walking distance. The beds were very comfortable and the apartment was set up nicely. I would definitely return!
Great centrally located apartment. Could use some fresh paint and updated furniture. The sofa was unbearably uncomfortable. Fortunately, there were extra pillows to help out.
The owner was great and genuinely wanted to make sure our visit was memorable.
This is the second time weâve stayed at this property (first time 5 years ago) and it was excellent, once again. The owner was easy to reach and responsive from booking to checkout. The place was clean and comfortable. The location canât be beat. It was a bit cold in Madrid during our visit, but the apartmentâs heating/AC kept us very comfortable. We highly recommend and will book again!
This is our second stay at this beautiful and most lovely apartment! Loved it even more the second time! Great location with a perfect place to relax - gorgeous linens; fluffy towels, and just about everything else you need. Gorete is wonderful and shares so much information - truly remarkable!!
The apartment is as nice in person as the pictures. Very clean and I appreciated being met at the door when I arrived. The location was in the center of everything- I was able to walk everywhere I wanted to go. I traveled by myself and felt very safe. I will stay here again when I return.
High spec property run by a very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful owner - thanks Gorete!!. Location is smack in the middle of the city, very convenient for sightseeing on foot or by metro, yet relatively quiet during the early hours. Plenty of options nearby for bars and restaurants. Highly recommend a stay at this or its adjoining apartments - without question we would re-book when we next visit Madrid.
This is a beautiful new apartment in the heart of old Madrid. It was very comfortable for my wife any I, with delicious restaurants in every direction. The nearby nightlife can be a bit loud, so earplugs were helpful for me, but my wife had no issues.
Communication with Gorete was efficient, and the check-in process was in person and extremely thorough.
We absolutely loved this apartment. The location couldn't be better, walkable to everywhere we wanted to go and on a lively street with lots of great bars and restaurants. The apartment was spotlessly clean, comfortable and well decorated - the glass enclosed terrace was a lovely spot for coffee or a vermut. We were there during a very hot period and were extremely grateful for the powerful AC. We thought it might be a little noisy and brought ear plugs, but we didn't need them, the windows blocked street noise even on a Saturday night. Gorete was a particularly charming host who had lots of great suggestions for local restaurants etc. Will definitely return.
Exceeded expectations for us two. Well thought-out lodging in an outstanding location: walking distance to Atocha train station, to the Royal Palace of Madrid, to the Prado Museum (and other top museums), to the Gran Via, etc. The manager, Gorete, provided much information in advance to help with our planning. We would not have known about the excellent Sorolla thru Light exhibition without her. The lodging was very clean with comfortable bedding and plush towels. We were able to dine on the small glass-enclosed balcony even during a thunderstorm. The room design and bed positioning meant that street noise was not a problem for our sleep. If we visit Madrid again, this apartment would be our top choice.
Fantastic property in a location that makes visiting all of Madrid's tourist attractions easy.
Easy walk to numerous bars,restaurants, shops etc.
Extremely secure apartment with two locked doors to gain access to the building.
Tha apartment has everything you need for your visit.
Living area/kitchen (including washer/drier) is well laid out and very good.
Bed was very comfortable. All towels and linen are provided as well as toiletries, tea towels, washing liquid,tea coffee etc.
Host is very good. Everything was smooth from checking in to checking out.
Lots of options to arrive from and depart to the airport.
Highly recommended apartment.
Many thanks.
This property is perfectly located mid way between Plaza Mayor and the Prado. An easy walk to both and near many nice restaurants. The property is fully equipped and in excellent condition except for a couple of touch up needed in the bathroom. The landlord communicated easily in English which we appreciated.
The only problem was the taxis which the landlord should try to improve through her Vrbo/Air B&B owners association. On the way in the taxi driver took us on a circuitous route from the Antoch train station. He ripped us off 45 minutes and âŹ20 For a ride that should have been 15 minutes and âŹ8. On the way out of town Alicia called a taxi for us. When he arrived, for reasons unknown he thought we were going to the airport. When we informed him we were going to the train station, he refused to take us, refused to call us another cab and drove off, leaving us locked out of the apartment, standing a the curb.
Very central location to many Madrid attractions. Apartment itself was quite nice, bread at one floor up the street noise and cigarette smoke at night was intolerable.
Our family moved from California to Madrid in the year 2000. We love Madrid and I am sure that all our guests will love it too. I like to meet my guests and always try to be as helpful as possible. We do have several apartments in the same building and if you read our reviews you will see that most people really enjoyed their stay with us. I look forward to hosting you in Madrid. Gorete
Location, location, location! This is smack-dab in the middle of the historic Barrio de las Letras (Literature Neighborhood) very romantic, safe and with countless places to eat, people-watch, on a pedestrian street (no traffic).
The building was completely gutted a few years ago and they saved the facade and the 100 year old staircase, but everything else is brand-new modern construction. We have furnished and equipped the apartment with everything we would like to find in a rental, we use VRBO ourselves when we travel so we understand that small details are paramount.
