You should not hesitate to rent this apartment if you are going to Madrid. I am extremely picky about where I stay and this apartment exceeded my expectations. The neighborhood is very elegant and quiet. The best stores, restaurants and everything in walking distance. The building has a door man which is nice for extra security. The apartment is beautifully decorated which is very rare with apartment rentals I have found. The kitchen was loaded with everything we could have needed i.e. coffee, milk, sugar, bread, fresh fruit, bottled water, snacks, condiments, spices, etc. That type of hospitality is not common with rentals. The living room area was decorated very nicely and made for a very pleasant area for my family (4 of us). She has hung artwork, bookshelves are stacked with hundreds of books, and oriental carpeting throughout.. 2 very nice bedrooms and bathrooms. Tons of closet space with actually more hangers than we could use. I can't say enough good things about this apartment. Please take my word and book this place if you are going to be in Madrid. Although it's not in the center of town, you can walk there easily (about 20 minutes to Prado/Sol etc), and you can find a nice oasis from the hustle and bustle of Madrid.
