Small studio located on the ground floor in a small private courtyard (so not very bright, but who cares, it's mainly for sleeping 😉) The accommodation is clean, functional, close to the metro/bus, everything is simple and easy to access (even on foot!) Marta is very responsive and has excellent advice on places to eat (special mention for the paella restaurant😁). Perfect place to visit Madrid in a few days.

Very surprised by all these favourable reviews. As far as we are concerned, we were very disappointed by this studio, which is smaller than it appears in the photos. Strong smell of mould, it was very hot despite the ceiling fan and no possibility to ventilate because the windows overlook a narrow open corridor. Uncomfortable bedding, dirty duvet, clogged bathroom sink, no coffee cup. We do not recommend this apartment. Sorry

No further explanation is required. The contract must be kept in the apartment and shown upon request. Additionally: Parties are strictly prohibited and will result in the termination of the contract and immediate eviction without refund. If a private security guard or the police must come to the apartment, we will charge €250 for the call-out service. Please respect your neighbors’ rest. Do not make noise in the stairwells or inside the apartment: Monday to Sunday from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. There is a noise law in Madrid, with cash fines exceeding €300 per person. It is prohibited to leave garbage in the apartment. Every night, there are grey bins with orange lids on the street. Use the yellow lid for packaging, and the brown lid for organic waste. The last night is especially important. Taking garbage out in the morning is not allowed. If we must remove it ourselves, the cost is €25. If you cook, you must clean the utensils you used. Towels are for personal drying only. They are not cloths or wipes for makeup or shoes. The cost of unusable towels due to misuse is €20. Clothes may not be hung on balconies or exterior windows. Use the drying racks provided. For rentals of 28 days or more, the tenant will be responsible for utility costs exceeding €100 (electricity, water, gas, heating, air conditioning...). Only declared tenants may enter the property. The presence of unauthorized individuals is grounds for immediate termination of the contract and eviction. In compliance with national security law, we are required—because it is mandatory—to collect guests' information to submit it to the police. We will require a photo of an official ID.

It's a practical and welcoming place. In our 5-day stay, me and my partner, we found a clean apartment with the necessary accessories for our stay, we were able to cook simple things for breakfast and some dinners, there is even a washing machine, which we used without major problem. Our hosts shared brief instructions with us, which were sufficient to avoid bothering them with questions. No unpleasant odors. My partner worked a couple of days in the apartment without any problems, with good internet access.

The apartment is in a quiet and beautiful area, but definitely well located. There are restaurants, bars, shops and markets nearby that help make your stay more enjoyable. The street is on a slope that with the summer heat made it a little difficult to do so the apartment air conditioning was a real wonder. The coco is well equipped and the fridge and coffee maker were very useful. Everything was quite clean and the bedding was impeccable. The place is small but very cozy and excellently located. At first, we thought it was a little strange to have the toilet and shower in separate spaces, but in the end, it allowed us to use the services simultaneously. I'd come back!

There is good communication with the hosts, they are in constant communication. There is a small difference between what the photos show and what the place really is. Everything is very clean and cozy. There is no A/C, just a ceiling fan.

The location of the apartment in terms of access by metro to other places is great, close to the main attractions. The apartment is located near the Levapies metro station. Multicultural neighborhood. The doors and windows of the apartment overlook the patio, which limits privacy and when the windows are opened, a lot of noise is heard. The windows are frosted, which makes the apartment dark and you need to use additional lighting even during the day. The apartment is as in the photos, but it should be noted that it is very worn, unfortunately, after entering the impression is negative: dirty mops in the bathroom, bedding on the bed old with holes, mattress very soft, thick layer of dust on the furniture and fan above the bed, dirty walls, toilet door swollen and jammed. The owner is very open and communicative.

We had a great time in this apartment, the area is wonderful full of beautiful places to eat and close to the Reina Sofia museum (not to be missed) we walked but it is convenient to the main metro stops. The apartment, although convenient to the main attractions, is very quiet and rest is guaranteed. We found a clean and well-served environment for both the kitchen and bathroom. It was a pleasure to be Marta's guests for her availability, kindness and the various tips she gave us.

Centrally located in a beautiful area of Madrid, a stone's throw from the Reina Sofia Museum. Something to say about the cleaning fee (€55), then given some flaws in the house. The environment is comfortable and the owners are always available for any problem. Value is a bit high.

Everything is great, it is close to Atocha about 5 minutes away and in the Lavapiés neighborhood that is well connected by metro with the whole center, very close also to the Del Prado area. The truth is that everything and being small had everything needed. I would improve that there were pillows on the bed instead of several pillows. Also the kitchen is quite simple, for cooking it did not have much power but well you could do some little thing. Everything was great.

Location was amazing, everything is super close and walkable. There are plenty of shops and cafes near the area. My husband needed to repair his suitcase and there was even a hardware store close by to us. Very beautiful area! As the days are long here the sun doesn't set till about 9:30, the apartment building most definitely doesn't ahear to the quiet times in the listing. Neighbors were out late till about 2 am sometimes. There is also a light that's motion sensor outside the apartment and it would go off every once in awhile as people walked close by. This was annoying when trying to sleep but we made do. Over all it was a good pick for us while on vacation. Would recommend ♥️

Great hosts - very responsive and proactive, provided a long list of places to visit and things to do. Apartament is located in a very nice neighborhood - lits of street art, colorful buildings and many bara around. The flat could use a bit of refreshment, the smell was slightly moldy. It was quite loud - noises from the surounding flats and main door opening/closing were noticable so if you need to sleep in complete silence bring earbuds with you :) It was a good deal looking at Madrid's offer! highly recommend the hosts - very friendly!

Sally
San Miguel de Allende, Mexico1 year ago
From the listing description I thought it would be right in front of the Reina Sofía or very close, but it is more towards Lavapiés. The area is equally good, definitely, but different from what it looked like. The photos seemed nicer to me than the reality. However, the only thing really annoying are the smells of the other neighbors' food and the musty smell inside the flat. It is a central option that meets having everything nearby, but the situation of the apartment is not so comfortable. It's a good base, but not to spend time there.

Stephanie

Very well located apartment, walking distance to a large majority of tourist attractions. Perfect for one or two. Chlorine odor and feeling of humidity sometimes when you enter, which end up fading away. For those who might be disturbing, it says in the listing that check-in is self check-in, but someone has to come give you the keys. The person who greeted me, Raquel, was very kind. As for the host, Marta, she is responsive and responds quickly. However, it took 7 days to respond when I made a reservation change request, once I canceled my request, and then get back to me within two hours. So you have to be certain of the dates when you book initially. There are relatively many rules to follow on the use of property in the apartment, but given its location, practicality and cleanliness, I will happily stay there again.

Upon arrival at the apartment we find everything dirty from the previous guests. We had quite a few things to do in Madrid and our plan was to leave all the belongings there so we could go light. However, we had to wait for the cleaning service and had to take the belongings with us as they told us it was going to take 2h. Also, we also didn't have a chance to clean at that time.
Sabine
11 years on Airbnb1 year ago
We can fully recommend the accommodation. The location is ideally located to all the sights. The metro station is only about 200m away. There are a few nice restaurants nearby, especially the Indian cuisine is represented in this neighborhood with a good selection. Communication with Marta was excellent and very personable. We were at the property before the official check-in time, which was just being cleaned, and were allowed to leave our luggage there. Marta also met us generously when checking out. The directions were very good and during our stay Marta provided us with many tips. The apartment was very clean and is functionally furnished. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need for two people. The bed is extremely comfortable. We would have liked only a few more accommodation options in the form of shelves in the closet. We would come back anytime!

Overall, our stay at this Airbnb was satisfactory. The home met our basic needs, but there were a few areas that could use improvement. The location was convenient, and the check-in process was smooth. However, the cleanliness could have been better, and some amenities were lacking. The host was responsive to our inquiries, which we appreciated. With some attention to detail and upgrades, this could be a great place for future guests."

If you're coming to Madrid for a few days and are going to visit the city's top attractions, Reina Sophia's apartment is exactly what you need. Great location, everything you can find within a few minutes' walk, and if you need a metro or bus, you have 5 minutes to the nearest station. I assume that you are not looking for excessive luxury in the apartment and are able to accept minor inconveniences such as a small, rather cramped bathroom, a specific smell at the first entrance, or the lack of agile-speaking information programs on TV (BBC, CNN). But you have a well-equipped kitchen and a large comfortable bed. Marta was very helpful, for example, recommending good nearby restaurants. We are very happy with your stay.
Anna

The accommodation is on the ground floor in a narrow courtyard inside the building, which is accessed from a nice door on the street, then a second that also gives access to the stairs of the other properties on the upper floors. It has everything you need for short stays, kitchen equipment, washing machine, hairdryer, ... if I have to make a note, it is for the small size of the bed, but it is a personal thing.

The apartment was located in a great spot. The hosts were great. The only thing is that the apartment does have a strong mildew smell that takes some time to go away when you return. Thankfully, there are two windows that open and an overhead fan to get the air moving. I knew that this smell was a potential issue before booking.

The apartment matches the photos, it is very small but cozy and in a great location! I recommend it. The only flaws we found were: a damp odor issue, coming from the shower water that then expanded throughout the studio. And also, I'm sorry to say, but we found it quite stressful to have to fill out a form with our data before arrival and the insistence with which they called us and wrote to us for check-in. Despite this, the communication itself was great and I recommend staying in this apartment!
Florencia
11 years on Airbnb1 year ago
We stayed in the apartment for four days. It has the double advantage of being a low distance from the noise of the street and at the same time, in a central area of old narrow streets with markets, shops and local bars, ... Personally that is what we liked about the area. There is a small Carrefour a few blocks away. I was given security to the lock system you easily handle from mobile. It is ideal for a couple. Good heating, a fantastic duvet, and a hot shower for the cold of the time. Good quality linens and towels. We arrived around 1:00 pm in Madrid and they kindly offered to let us in earlier. Communication with the owners was excellent. We recommend this place to stay.

I stayed there for 6 nights. Nice little studio, perfect for a single person. I worked remotely and the internet was very efficient even for my video calls. Since the windows are frosted, it lacks outdoor brightness to work all day. Contrary to other reviews, I did not find the noise from the schoolyard disturbing. The apartment smells of humidity, especially the bathroom. Hosts are very responsive and available. Beautiful stay.

I recommend this tastefully decorated accommodation in a great location. It has everything you need for a pleasant stay. Marta is a fantastic host with lots of good places and always listening. It's safe if I come back to Madrid this is where I'll be staying with great pleasure.

The apartment is inside a complex, so there are neighbors. We had no issues with bothersome noises or interaction. The internet service was very good inside the apartment, and the entrance was automated so we were able to get in without any problems even if we didn't have the keys yet. Two little touches that prevented the 5 stars: the apartment had a lot of musty smell, and not even opening the windows and turning on the fan was relieved. And the other is that the toilet is in a mini-room at the opposite end of the "rest" of the bathroom. Otherwise, everything is perfect.

Marta was a really great host. The communication was always clear and she was available to help anytime. The place is at the best location, near a lot of attractions by a walking distance. The place looks a bit bigger than it actually is in the photos so we had less space than we were expecting, but it had all we needed. We went for 4 nights and it all went great!

Marta was lovely and the location was great! Lavapiés is a perfect neighbour to stay in. We walked everywhere and got to see a lot of sights and have a lot of nice drinks on the way to and fro the different museums. The shower room and the bathroom (two separate rooms) was clean enough, but the rest of the studio didn't seem to have been cleaned properly in a while. For instance there was dust and cobwebs covering the ceiling spotlights. The pictures of the studio is time stamped '2013' and it seems like a lot of the interior is still going strong since then.

The location is the real star of the show here. You have so much on your doorstep and the Metro will bring you everywhere that's a little further away. Marta was extremely responsive. The apartment is not massive but perfect for two, especially as you will be exploring the city nearby most of the day. As it is a ground floor apartment, it could be a little damp smelling when returning in the evening, but this is totally worth it for what is a perfect Basecamp to visit Madrid.

Marta and Enrique's apartment is very conveniently located, super clean and well organized. As an opportunity for improvement, I would say that they could improve the collection of the keys because it is in a different place to the apartment and although it is close (8 min walk), it is practically having to walk in two directions with suitcases. Otherwise, everything is perfect.

Great location I really like being within easy walking distance of the train station , plenty of options for eating and the museums. The apt is located on a beautiful side street with a church. Marta was a good host and the apt was clean . The major downside for my stay was the NOISE! The apt windows and door open into a narrow shared passageway/stairwell / entrance. Even with the windows sealed shut , You can hear people coming and going until 1am in the morning every single night .Most of them talking loud and to make matters worse the lights come on each time they pass , which despite the roll down shades lights up the room. I had difficulty sleeping every night of my stay.

The hosts were very responsive for a last minute reservation. The apartment is located in the city center, super well located. 10 min walk from Retiro Park, 15 min from the hyper center. The bed is super comfortable, but the sofa bed is worth replacing. In short, we had a great time in Madrid.

Washington, District of Columbia2 years ago
The check-in process was a bit bothersome. We got in at 9am and had to either pay an extra fee or walked 5 mins with all of our luggage to get the key. The area is great. No complaint. Great options for food and close to museums and shopping spots. Place is clean except for the couch. Marta was rushing to get us out of the Airbnb for her cleaning lady to start cleaning at check-out time, which was a bit annoying, but whatever. Overall it was a pleasant stay. If you’re planning to be out and about a lot, this is a good option. If you plan on using this space as a home office, it wouldn’t be a good match because it’s right next to a school and you could hear kids laughing and playing during the day.

Marta is kind and responsive and accommodating. Apartment is central and cheaper than surrounding options. The room was clean however there is bad air circulation and a constant dampness/bad smell. Tried to open windows for fresh air but it didn't help. There is also construction which they warned us rather late about outside the window. It didn't really bother us as it started late enough to not wake us up, but has been going on since July from the looks of a prior review. Should probably be advertised up front in the listing.

The apartment is in a great location and the hosts were willing to acommodate a late check in with the use of a lock box, which worked great. We were two friends travelling together, so we wanted to use both the normal bed and the sofa bed. The sofa bed was not in a great shape and our request to be provided with more bed sheets was ignored. Also, as it was a small place, it was quite humid. There was a ventilator provided, which helped, but there was an unpleasant smell still. All in all it was okay for a few nights, but it wasn´t a great experience.
Zoe

:) - The hosts were excellent with communication and very helpful throughout! Super location, very central and close to the park. I can see that they really take care of their guests- super hosts. Nice little kitchenette and cosy studio. :(- smell of dampness in apartment but they said they would get dehumidifiers. I was there during temporary building work (which they had kindly notified me of in advance) so maybe dampness was worse during this time

Overall lovely stay at Marta and Enrique’s place! Easy check in and great communication with host. Perfect place for 1-2 people for a few nights in Madrid. Walking distance from all popular attractions. The only negative aspect was the loud early morning construction that was outside our window but it’s something that cannot be avoided as early morning is the only time people can work before it gets too hot!

Jon

The apartment is fine for a couple who want to spend 2-3 days visiting Madrid. PROs: - Easy key pick up process and close to the apartment. - Renovated apartment (kitchen, bathroom, windows...) - 5 min by subway, 15 min walk to Puerta del Sol. CONTRAs: - NOISE: The floor windows face the patio/portal and you can hear the neighbors when entering and leaving the portal and their houses, neighbors praying with music... - Uncomfortable sofa.

I've been in Marta's apartment for almost three weeks. It is exactly like the photos, central and beautiful. The stay is exquisitely decorated and the bed is very comfortable. For two people maximum since it is chiquitito, but the couch can be made a bed (I didn't try it). Communication with hosts is very efficient, I had some problems and they quickly fixed them for me. Special mention to the neighbor across the street, which is lovely. To improve, I was missing more dishes and useful for cooking (a kitchen knife, cutting board...) and more storage space but otherwise everything was perfect.

Ive stayed in multiple places during my stay in Spain and this has been the best for its price. Its a very cute and quiet place , conveniently located on the ground floor. Clean bathroom and kitchen with an espresso machine. The apartment doesn't have air-conditioning but they had a cool fan that mists water. Its a nice layout and we felt wonderfully comfortable during our stay. Thanks!

Great location.. easy to get to city center and 10 minute walk from the train station. 25 minute walk to the Royal Palace! Lisi’s niece checked us in and gave us AMAZING tips of places to go for food, shopping and sight seeing! She even had a power nap that she marked up for us to follow! As for the apartment, it’s on the first floor but there are bars and shades to block out the sun. There is no AC (which is listed on the posting) and the apartment gets super hot and humid in the summer months (especially after a “wonderful” summer storm)! There is a fan but it takes awhile for it to cool the place off along with the windows being open and still everything feels damp.

The room is small. Of course, it's bigger than a hotel or hostel!! It's a shame for people who like air conditioning because there is no air conditioner, but Madrid is so dry that it's cool enough:) (We stayed when the highest temperature was 43 degrees...) It's a pity that it's not around Sol Square, but I'm still satisfied because it's one stop by subway. The host is also very friendly and nice ^ ^

The apartment has an excellent location and you can walk to the main tourist sites of Madrid. Despite being very close to the bustle, the streets surrounding the building are very quiet and safe. The apartment feels like “your space” and, although it is small, it is very cozy. Everything was very clean and in optimal condition. On the other hand, even though I did not meet Marta or Lisi personally, all the time they were aware of my needs and questions during my stay. Communication was very quick and good. Both are very accessible. I would definitely book this place again.

This apartment is located near Lavapies or Antón Martin station. It is easy to reach on foot (15 min) from Atocha Station, which is a plus for travelling to the outskirts of Madrid. The apartment is very well maintained, nice decoration and furnishings in keeping with the rest. Good bathroom, with washing machine and a patio on the first floor with clothesline to dry clothes. The dry climate in Madrid makes an electric dryer unnecessary. Lisi, who gave us the apartment, was attentive at all times to correct or take into account recommendations. It does not have air conditioning, but a fan, which could be insufficient for a very hot season. I would return to this apartment without hesitation.

This is a great place to stay. It's very close to the main museums in the city and not far from the centre of the city.

Javier was really helpful and gave us great local tips on our arrival.

The place is in a good location. It was clean, but there was a bad smell in the toilet room (which is is separate from the bathroom). We kept the smalk window open, but the smell did not go away. The studio is small, stylish and very well equipped. It is situated on the ground floor, the windows opened into a common hallway and were made of frosted glass. The shower cabin is big enough and the water pressure is good. It has good internet connection.

The apartment has great location (Atocha railway station, metro station and the city center is in walking distance). It looks like on photos and has all necessary things for comfortable stay. Marta was very friendly and helpful. We liked our stay at this apartment and can recommend it for one person or couple.

Marta's place was in a convenient location and had great food places around. The appartment was well equipped and the washing machine was convenient. We had a good stay in Madrid, our only problem was the room had a musty odour that was really strong around the bed/bathroom which was unpleasant. The shower was also not the cleanest.

Very good place, neat decoration, very well located and quiet. A small downside: a lack of light because the studio is on the ground floor but in a very quiet "courtyard".

Michelle was great host, and we enjoyed our stay in her place. The apartment looks just like the picture posted-cozy and cute- but has everything you need. The apartment had usb Plugin charger! The apartment is also conveniently located- close to Atocha station, museums and restaurant/bars but still residential area and quiet at night. Michelle was awesome - we arrived bit earlier than check in time and she let us leave our luggage earlier which was big relief! Also she had been accomodating for other needs and has been very responsive to air bnb messages.

Very nice studio apartment in a residential area on the first floor. Fast wifi. 7 minute walk to metro (very good system, which we only discovered on our last day) and train station. 3 minutes to shopping on the same street. Walking distance to Sol central square and numerous nice restaurants. We really liked the location and the apartment and recommend it to any couple.

Little opening to the outside, lack of light and humid Great location and very quiet. Hosts who don't always respond to messages and seem to do this for money only

It was such a warm welcoming for me and my mom. Michelle gave me some decent tips for shopping, restaurants, tapa bars and eveything you expect from Madrid. It was such a clean apartment located right mext to the Reina Sofia, where we had the most amazing moment in Madrid. Not a big city for tourists, well for most of them, it is easy to access the central part of Madrid by both metro or on foot. (Believe me. We had never taken any kinds of public transportation for four days.) Thank you for everything. We really had such a great time staying at your place in Madrid.

She was very helpful on showing us the high points of where to go in Madrid and her husband gave us a tip on taking a less steep road to their apartment, as Madrid was very hilly. Also they made sure we had their WIFI code.

Loved the little apartment. It was SUPER cozy, and had everything we needed to make our 3 nights very comfortable. It was quite a nightmare to drag our huge luggages from atocha station over and thank goodness we only had to do it once. Marta was superb. She gave us heaps of great tips, a map that has all the attractions all marked out. I'll definitely stay here again!! Thank you Marta!

Everything with Marta went incredibly smoothly. She did her best to aid us in every way and checkin was quick and easy. The apartment is lovely, the perfect size for two people and makes you feel like a local. It can be a little far to walk to major attractions at times but we didn't mind! 100% recommendable.

Marta provided a lovely apartment to stay in! She let us drop our bags off earlier than the check-in time and was there to greet us, complete with a map so she could show us all the best areas and places to visit, plus a few great restaurant suggestions too. The apartment is really conveniently located and we had a great trip - would highly recommend! Thank you for your hospitality Marta!

Marta was a lovely host! Her flat is beautiful, clean, and exactly like the pictures. The bed was a little tight for two people (it is a double) but other than that, the place was great.

I stayed here with my husband on our honeymoon (June 2016) and it was ideal. Great location, super clean and Marta was very helpful. She made our arrival and stay very pleasant and always provided good tips and suggestions in a timely manner. We arrived early after 24 hours of flying and Marta let us drop our bags early so we could walk around uninhibited while the room was being cleaned. The apartment was in a quiet street, 3 mins from the Reina Sofia and walking distance of everything you need in Madrid. Only small thing is the bed was a tad small and both our feet stuck off the end. That's a minor detail though, in what was otherwise a fantastic stay in Madrid!
Sebastian

The apartment, located in a multicultural working-class district, is on the ground floor of an unpretentious block of flats and opens up to a narrow inner courtyard, so that in a way you get to share in the everyday life of the occupants. There is no street noise and such, and once everyone goes to bed, the house becomes very quiet. ++ Inside the apartment adopts a style seen anywhere in the world these days, making it a good example of airbnb apartments specifically set up for the purpose. It is slightly larger than a standard hotel room, sufficiently well equipped for short stays, and reasonably clean. However, at 190 x 140 cm (75 x 54 in.) the mattress is a tight fit for two adults and may be an annoyance if you're tall. ++ The underground station is only a short walk from the apartment, and some of the city's main attractions are also a mere 10- to 20-minute walk away. There are plenty of cheap bars and restaurants and a 24/7 supermarket in the vicinity too. ++ #HonestReviews

This is my first time using Airbnb BNB. I couldn't have experienced something better. Marta was very attentive since the principle. He was waiting for us when we arrived and explained the interesting points around and also the house rules. The apartment is central but very calm at night. Madrid loved it so much!

We had a very short but great stay at Marta's chic urban apartment. The location is 10 minutes away from the main station at Atocha ( & Reina Sofia Museum) and another metro station. The main hub of Sol is also a 15-20 mins walk if one wants to avoid public transport. All in all, it has a great peaceful location and is very accessible. Marta was at the apartment to receive us. She is very cheerful and explained everything about the apartment and the surrounding. She gave us a map and marked main attractions in Madrid for us. This was helpful. The apartment is very well done and stylish. The bed and the extra bed , both were comfortable. We had a short stay, however a street with a lot of great looking bars was a 5 minute walk. It looked like a great place to explore.

Tom
11 years on Airbnb9 years ago
The apartment was conveniently located for access to the main sites of central Madrid, to which we walked. It was clean, well-appointed and had a nice atmosphere. We read somewhere that central Madrid is noisy, but the apartment seemed quiet and peaceful to us. The immediate area had plenty of amenities, like cafes and bars, and a 24 hour supermarket within easy walking distance helped us to sort ourselves out with food of our own to eat for breakfasts. Marta was very helpful, leaving us a map and explaining some good places to go, then making contact during our stay to check everything was OK. We had absolutely no problems or worries and would recommend this to anyone.
Ruby Marcela
Cali, Colombia9 years ago
The apartment is very well located both for sightseeing and transportation to other cities due to its proximity to Atoche station. The place is very cute, it has everything you need for a good stay and nearby there is a very well stocked market. Marta is very friendly and attentive to our trip and arrival. With how well stocked the Apt is. I would only recommend that for electrical installations, it has flat-legged appliance adapters and makes it easy to connect to the power outlets.
Devin
Los Angeles, California9 years ago
Such a lovely hotel in a very centralized area in Madrid. Very comfortable and quiet neighborhood. The apartment had everything we needed and we felt right at home. Close to everything and within walking distance to Retiro Park and Reina Sofia museum! Marta was so sweet and welcoming and gave us suggestions on where to go/eat. She was always available for questions or concerns. I will definitely be staying here next time I visit! It was far beyond what we expected :)
Benjamin
12 years on Airbnb9 years ago
Marta and her husband are very friendly people. They helped us a lot. First we didn´t find the apartment but thanks to there help we managed to find it in the end. They were very pacient and understandfull. Furthermore they gave us a lot of information about what we could do in Madrid and where we could find the good cafés and restaurants. The location is also worth mentioning, very central with a train station and metro station nearby. A 24h supermarket is just 5 minutes away from the flat. We really liked the neighboorhood because it was so full of life, you will undetstand once you get there. All in all we had a great stay and would recommend everyone else to stay in this apartment.
Prescilia
Dallas, Texas9 years ago
Marta's place is lovely. It is in the heart of Madrid. I believe this was the only place where we were indeed able to walk to every single of the attractions. Marta and her husband are very lovely folks. They were even accomodating when we arrived earlier. I think I will most definetly recommend for two people and those without more than one suitcase as it is smaller than we anticipated but still highly recommended.
Jason
Rancho Cucamonga, California9 years ago
Marta had excellent communication throughout our stay. We had no problem getting keys, and our apartment was professionally cleaned prior to arrival. Invigorating shower, comfy bed, and great location next to the Reina Sofia museum! Private courtyard made this a location home away from home.

Marta was so welcoming and friendly when we arrived in Madrid and took time to tell us places of interest to visit and point them out on a map. She had even brought a sheet for the baby cot just in case we had forgotten ours. The apartment was cosy and spotless. It was in a great location for exploring Madrid and we were very happy with it.
Raquel

Marta is a lovely girl... she and her husband guided me to get to the apartment because in the neighborhood the streets are irregular The apartment is very new and the beds are ideal Very good heating It is an advantage that it is on the ground floor, so there is no problem to carry luggage It has a supermarket open 24-hour very close. The neighbors on the staircase are very helpful Marta gives all the facilities to pick up the bags later than the scheduled time Repeat if I have the chance

Fantastic place! Marta helped my boyfriend and I find the best route to the space to and from the airport. She also provided us a map and offered great suggestions on what to visit and where to eat. Definitely made our short stay easier! The space itself is very well put together and I could see this place being perfect for an extended stay as well. There are places to eat very close by as well as a grocery store if you want to do your own cooking. Marta has stocked the kitchen with all the utensils you need to prepare a meal which we opted to do during the mornings. The area felt safe and quiet. It also helped that it was close to several sites we were planning to see. Thank you Marta for such a great stay!
Carlos Andrés

We stayed only 1 night in the apartment, but everything went perfectly. The location is unbeatable, close to downtown but away from the hustle and bustle to rest properly. The owners were very nice advising us places to dine and eat. The stay was very pleasant. Best regards, and I hope to repeat with you, Marta.

Marta is a very welcoming host. She took the time to welcome us and even printed out a map and marked areas or points that she recommends to go. A very, very nice lady. This cute apartment is very near to Atocha train station and a Metro stop away from Sol. So it is accessible to the city center which is a good thing. On top of that, you can never get lost or go hungry as there are a lot restaurants in the area. The apartment is comfy. Has a comfy bed to sleep on. Just like a hotel bed. The washroom is a bit tight but still good enough. There's three heaters in the apartment so you can never be cold in winter. I could go on but I would rather you book this apartment and experience it for yourself. Go for it!
Annie
New York, New York9 years ago
Marta was very welcoming and checked in to make sure everything was going well. The apartment was so clean and she even left chocolates on our pillows! The apartment had every accommodation we needed, from a washing machine to a coffee pot, and the pull out bed was very cozy. Even the location was perfect, between metro station Antón Martín and Lavapiés, where we could easily walk to the Reina Sofia but were close to the metro that took us to the center of town. We'd definitely come back!

Beautiful little studio in a residential area just behind the Reina Sofia Art Museum. There are plenty of bars and restaurants a short walk from the apartment which was really handy. It is also a 40 minute stroll to the Royal Palace and the centre of the City. The apartment had everything we needed the little kitchen was just big enough to do some simple cooking. The bed there is incredibly comfy. We even looked into buying a similar one once we got home. Unfortunately Marte was unable to meet us to let us in herself, but her friend greeted us instead and showed us around. The map we were provided with was incredibly helpful and much better than the one that came with our lonely planet book!
Jacqueline

The apartment itself is close to Atocha station and Lavapies metro station, so travelling around was easy. It is also close to some dining places so you don't have to worry if you arrive at night or return late from a day trip. Marta's place is very clean and as nicely furnished as it is in the photos. Marta and her husband are very nice and gave us plenty of sightseeing advice and dining options, clearly indicated on a map of Madrid that they kindly gave us. They checked on us to see if everything was okay and made sure we had everything we needed. Marta is very responsive and was able to accomodate to meet our last minute request. We really appreciate their thoughtfulness and would recommend their apartment.

Marta's apartment is in perfect condition, very comfortable and functional for two people. It was the place where we have best rested, the bed is comfortable and the apartment is quiet (something difficult to find when staying in a central place). Marta was very kind and spent a good time talking to us about Madrid and places to visit, for dinner, and other considerations. It was our first BnB and it was perfect!

Michal
13 years on Airbnb10 years ago
The host (Marta) was nice and helpful. Smooth check in, showed us everything in the place and gave us good recommendations for local amenities. The flat is very nice inside, though rather small, and extremely well equipped - it's got all you'd ever need. It is, however, quite dark and not very well ventilated - a good bet is to keep the windows open (which is fine as there are bars). The building is nice enough, but while it is VERY quiet at night, in the mornings the sound carries quite a lot, so not great for sleeping in too long. The location and area is brilliant - very genuine, local, great vibe, lots of bars, restaurants, little shops - fantastic. Plus a stones throw from everywhere, particularly Retiro, the main museums and the main train station. I'd recommend if you mainly use the flat to sleep. If you want to spend a lot of time inside, there probably are better places.

The apartment is just like in the photos. It is very comfortable, safe and very well equipped. It is very close to the metro station, supermarket and in an area full of bars. Marta came to welcome us and on a map explained to us with all the details about places to visit and places to go eat. We were very comfortable in Reina Sofia Star!

Had a great time staying at this studio apartment. It is very well-equipped, clean and in a great location. Marta has taken a lot of care to details to make sure that her guests are comfortable. Marta is a very nice hostess and was waiting for me on my arrival. She also helped to guide me where the particular highlights were of Madrid that I wanted to see. This neighborhood by day is very lively and multicultural, with many cool bars & cafes nearby. At night, the area is quiet, so peaceful sleep was easy to attain. Can't wait to return soon!

We had a pleasure stay in Marta's apartment. The apartment is exactly as the pictures show: cozy, clean, and well equipped. It is centrally located, easily accessible to many sightseeing, with subway station and train station close by. There are a lot bars in the neighborhood and pricing is reasonable. We were advised to visit to Toledo when we couldn't make a decision during a short stay in Madrid area, and it turns out to be a fantastic experience! This is our first time to try Airbnb. I am glad I chose Marta's place. I would recommend to anyone visiting Madrid!

Lovely Marta was waiting for us when we arrived and gave us great local tips, the bed was really comfortable (I slept really well here) and the apartment was very clean and well appointed, it was really also great to be able to catch up on 10 days of laundry. The location was also perfect, close to restaurants, metro and in amongst a very vibrant area. Thanks Marta. Jason & Garrett, Sydney

Marta's place is exactly how described. It's very well located in a developing neighbourhood - lots of interesting bars and shops to visit, and very close to the museums. The place was clean and not noisy, which gave us a perfect chance to relax. The host is welcoming and is there to help you navigate the city. I would record this host and place.

This stay was hosted by Adolfo, the room was very comfortable, the kitchenware was complete, the sofa bed was enough for two people to lie down.Carrefour Supermarket and Lavapiés Metro Station are very close to the B&B, which is very convenient for guests who need to cook and move by metro. Adolfo generously provided us with some tips and recommendations for restaurants in Madrid, and we are very grateful for his kindness.

Marta was incredibly communicative and helpful, providing us with all the information we needed for a smooth arrival in Madrid and check-in at her apartment. We met her husband Adolfo, who was extremely friendly, and gave us a ton of fabulous recommendations on what to see, where to eat, and how to get around the city. The apartment is wonderfully appointed, with many nice design elements, and artful touches. It is also a short and very scenic walk away from several major tourist destinations (e.g. Reina Sofia, Atocha, Retiro). We loved staying with Marta and Adolfo, and will look to do so again the next time we visit Madrid!
Milena

We were welcomed by Martas husband who gave us some useful tips what to visit and where to eat and drink and also showed us around. Although the apartment is a bit small it is is sufficient for a city trip. The location is central and quite, however there was a building lot in front of the house. Thank you for hosting us during our trip!

We booked Marta's apartment at short notice as a previous booking elsewhere disappeared due to a site glitch. She was quick to respond and gave us helpful advice. On arrival in Madrid our plane was very slow to unload and we also had some difficulty with navigating between airport terminals so consequently we were rather late getting to the apartment. However, Adolfo, Marta's husband waited very patiently as we sweated our way via Atocha station. A great chap, he was full of kind information as he showed us where we were staying and recommended places to visit - his advice and friendliness made for a fine start to our visit. The apartment is neat and well fitted out, clearly showing evidence of Marta's eye for interior design and Adolfo's construction experience. It has a very comfortable double bed, well equipped kitchen and bathroom facilities and made a perfect base to visit Madrid. The apartment is in a quiet location close to the Reina Sofia gallery, it also has nearby streets with lively restaurants and bars. We loved our stay there and highly recommend the flat and its owners.

It is Marta's husband who helped me check in and show me everything about the city. And Marta was really sweat offering me with favors and suggestions during my settlement in Madrid.

This is a cheery, bright and tastefully furnished apartment within walking distance to the magnificent museums of Madrid. The walkway is a bit dark but the apartment is a haven. There is no air conditioning but the fan was sufficient. Martha's husband met us on arrival and provided useful local tips on places to eat. Only gripe is that the edges in the shower could do with a good scrub. Else a lovely place to bunk in!

Daisy

Marta's flat near Reina Sofia was very cozy and comfortable. It was a pretty convenient and short walk from the Atocha station. You can tell Marta is a very experienced host - she was waiting for us outside the flat and she had a tourist map of Madrid ready for us when we arrived. Also, be prepared to give out your passport number, as this is now required by the police. The flat was pretty accurate compared to the pictures posted and you can tell everything was newly renovated. The bed posted in the picture was HEAVENLY - it was like sleeping on clouds. If you need a bigger space, check out some of Marta's other flats in the city - they are all gorgeous according to the pictures. Marta was so nice and welcoming that I would definitely stay at one of her many flats again.

Marta and her husband were very kind and welcoming hosts. The room was clean with all necessary equipment. The location is perfect - you can walk to the most important and must-see museums and see the the castles and parks. Also tips around where-to-eat were provided by Marta and all of them were worth to try. I can recommend Marta's apartment without restrictions.

We were delighted with every aspect of our experience at Marta's Reina Sofia apartment. To begin, Marta greeted us upon our arrival and took time to answer questions and offer suggestions about where to eat and what to do in Madrid. The apartment was exactly like the attractive photos , very clean and equipped with modern fixtures which worked well and a comfortable bed. The location is an easy walking distance from museums and restaurants. We will eagerly recommend this apartment to family and friends!

Marta is very kind. She welcomed us in the apartment when we arrived and explained us everything, like places where we could find attractions, restaurants or supermarkets. The flat is in very good shape, cozy and comfortable. And it is very close to the train station where you can also easily find shuttle bus to airport. It is also close to all the tourist attractions, all in walking distance. We will choose this apartment again if we visit Madrid in the future.

What a gem! One night was not enough in this gorgeous apartment! Marta and her husband were waiting for us on arrival and were so warm and welcoming, showing us the best spots to eat and drink and how to get there. The apartment is gorgeous and has everything you need and is walking distance to everywhere you want to visit in Madrid not to mention minutes from the train station. We would love to stay here again should we find ourselves back in Madrid!

It looks like a house that has just been remodeled. The room is very clean. They tell you to use 4 towels, but there is a washing machine, so if you don't have enough, you can wash and use them, but there is no detergent. It's close to Atocha Station and a bit far from Sol Square. It's in a residential area, so it's very quiet, but it's a little scary when it gets dark. ^ ^

Thank you, Marta for being such an attentive and kind hostess. You explained use of the appliances, heater, and washing machine, as well as the location of nearby markets, metro stations, restaurants and Madrid attractions. We appreciated your taking the time to bring us an iron for our clothes. The very clean and well-decorated apartment is a 10 minute walk from the Atocha train station and everything is in good working order. We hope to stay again in the future.

Thanks to Marta and her husband for the tips. The apartment is very nice. It is well located for you (near the Museum of Queen Sofia and the Atocha parking lot).

Marta's apartment is absolutely lovely. The pictures are accurate, but don't quite do it justice as it really exceeds expectations. The decor is stylish and the furnishings are really modern. Really comfortable bed and a really strong shower. The apartment's location is close to Atocha/Retiro, and also a short walk from the tapas bars of La Latina. The apartment complex is also rather swish with an open-air atrium that spoke of old Madrid. Marta is a great host, and made us feel at home instantly. She even took some time out to recommend places to go/things to see. You have to stay here!

Marta is an excellent host, the apartment is small but very very cozy. The downtown and quiet area is a short walk away for buses and metro. Both my children and I have felt comfortable. We will definitely be back.

Marta made us feel right at home. The apartment was exactly as advertised. My husband and son were very comfortable, and they enjoyed the sofa bed since their own bed was very large. We slept very well every night (the mattress was fantastic). She explained everything to us at all times, assuring us that everything should work and that if anything wasn't, we should call her immediately. The area is great, and the metro is a two-minute walk away. Those who enjoy walking can even walk to Sol. She recommended some places for tapas and lunch/dinner. It was our first time staying this way, and we'll definitely be back. If we return to Madrid, we'll stay in her apartment again. We left the car in a parking garage a three-minute walk away for all three days, and it was very convenient.

Marta's apartment is exactly as adorable and cozy as it looks in the very accurate photos. It has an immaculate and well-designed bathroom, with a generously deep shower, good water pressure, and a radiator which you will appreciate if visiting in chilly weather. It also has a separate WC, which is nice if you are two in the apartment. The little kitchen has almost everything you could possibly need to make breakfast, a snack or a meal, and a table for two at which to enjoy it. It's on a quiet little street with a lovely vista and could not be more perfectly located: you are a short walk to/from Atocha train station, and all key museums. The building itself is not much, and you enter down a narrow, rather dim courtyard lined with clotheslines, but that just makes opening the door onto this little jewel box even more of a treat! There are also no stairs if that is a consideration. Oh! And the most comfortable bed of anywhere I stayed in 3 weeks traveling around Spain. Perfect for one, romantic for two. Enjoy.

Marta was an unbelievably sweet host, making us feel immediately at home and suggesting some great sights and places for tapas. She stayed in contact with me throughout our stay to ensure all was going smoothly. The neighborhood was very safe and peaceful at night. The apartment itself was clean and comfortable and up-to-date. And it was just a two minute walk from the Reina Sofia, which is a must-see in my opinion. As my first experience with airbnb, I could not have been happier with how it all worked out. I highly recommend this apartment and Marta as a host!

Marta was lovely, and made us feel welcome on arrival, giving us lots of potential places to go and things to see. The flat was nicely located, no distance from Reina Sofia and Atocha station. It's close(ish) to three metro stations, so getting about was no problem at all. If you need one (and we did) there's a church almost outside the apartment. The room was comfortable, very warm and had everything we needed - though we don't tend to take much advantage of the cooking facilities in any case. It wasn't a case of just having a base that you were glad to leave in the mornings - we struggled to get out of bed and out into town, so snug did we feel. It all feels very authentic and less touristy. We would definitely consider staying here again were we in Madrid - indeed it would be a nice base for a longer stay.

Marta's apartment was decorated very nicely (as pictured!). The place was small and cozy and was just right for my boyfriend and I to feel right at home. This location is very close to the train station and shops. Marta provided us with a map and showed us several points of interest to visit during our stay in Madrid. The only gripe we had about the apartment was that there wasn't enough hot water to shower in the morning and gradually turned cold. Although our stay was short, we enjoyed it here!
Álvaro

The experience was exquisite. Even though we are Madrid and spent a night due to a series of commitments, we were able to enjoy the area and even be advised by Marta to visit a number of places we didn't know about. We appreciate the prompt and simplicity in the management and the kindness of the host. The area of the house is enviable and its condition was impeccable. 10/10

Marta is an absolute sweetheart and I would stay here again next time - the location is prime, right in the middle of town, which makes up for the lack of daylight.

Very pleasant stay in this very comfortable and very well located apartment! Marta's welcome was excellent with lots of practical tips to discover Madrid! The apartment is within a 5-minute walk of a metro station and there are plenty of local shops. After our long walks in Madrid, we very much enjoyed the comfortable bed. We would not hesitate to return to Madrid and resume this accommodation again. Thanks again to Marta and Adolfo!

The accommodation was very clean and I was able to relax because it was quiet. Marta, the host, kindly explained, and I was wandering around looking for a place to stay when I checked in, but I was grateful that he came out and welcomed me warmly. I use the largest station, Atocha Station, which is the biggest station to travel by train, but it was very convenient because it was close to the station and close to a big grocery store.

My husband and I both stayed at Marta's apartment and we enjoyed our time in the city and surrounding neighborhoods. It was within walking distance to several Metro stops that enabled us to venture around the city during our stay. We thought it was a bit small / cozy, but worked fine for 2 of us. The space was nicely decorated and inviting.

Marta and Adolfo have a very nice place. It's tastefully remodeled and contains much of Marta's creative talents. Adolfo was very informative on the local areas of interest. We enjoyed the conversation and had a great stay. It was conveniently located within walking distance of the train station.

My husband and I stayed at Reina Sofia Star for our honeymoon stop in Madrid and it was exactly what we expected! Very clean and cozy space and very close to the museums and major train stations. Felt very safe! Our smartphone wasn't working well in Spain but I was able to maintain good communication with Marta and was able to meet her at the space as scheduled. Very accommodating and informative. The host made our stay in Madrid very relaxed and special! We have great memories from Madrid!

Marta and Adolfo are lovely people. They will give you tips on how to enjoy your stay in Madrid better. They're the kind of people you'd want as your friends. They even went over and above their obligation to us to wash our clothes because there's was construction being done outside the studio. The listing and pictures are accurate. The place is clean. They have a cleaning person who comes in to do the cleaning. The fixture are all modern and the place is excellently decorated. We were there when it got cold and there were no problems with the hot water and the heater. Although the place is small, it has 3 heaters for the comfort of their guests. It's not a big place but for 2 people, it's perfect. The studio is walking distance to Reina Sofia, The Prado and Thyssen. It is also near the Atocha metro station to get you anywhere you want in the city. If you need fastfood fare because you're in a hurry, then you're in luck; there's a nearby McDonald's, KFC and Burger King. Bottom line is we would stay at the apartment again. Don't hesitate with this one. It's a gem.

Martas Appartment is very nice and was perfect for a nice stay in madrid! It is small but cozy and has everything you need. The neighborhood is nice and you can reach almost everything easy by foot. The big club "Kapital" is also only approx. 5 minutes away :) Marta and her husband welcomed us very warmly and showed us a lot of nice to know things on a map.

Everything was great. Quiet place, close to the Atocha terminal. Cute for those who like walking and discovering beautiful bars and places. Well connected to the airport. There is a direct bus that takes you to the Atocha terminal between 25 and 40 minutes. The space is nice and has the essentials for spending a pleasant stay.

An absolutely fabulous apartment. Very clean, spacious, secure and well located (close to Atocha metro and the Renfe station - we simply walked to transfer to our next location in 10 minutes). Marta met us on check in and was very friendly and helpful with a map and highlighted places to visit, eat (she recommended a great paella place - el arozzal), shop, etc. check out was easy too. Would stay again, Madrid is great, highly recommended.

Marta and her husband Adolfo were very kind hosts and were waiting for us when we arrived late in Madrid. They gave us a map of the city and took the time to show us all the main attractions to visit and showed us some of their favorite spots to eat and drink. The apartment is a 10 to 15 minute walk from the main shopping area and very close to metro stations, the Atoche train station, and the Reina Sofia museum. The apartment was clean and artistically decorated, and it was nice to be able to do laundry and cook while there. I would recommend this apartment to anyone coming to Madrid that likes a quiet area to stay with easy access to the whole city. Muchísimas gracias, Marta y Adolfo!

Thank you, Marta, for sharing your apartment with us. It was very stylish, clean and comfortable. The location is central (close to Reina Sophia, Prado, Retiro, Botanical Gardens), yet quiet. Marta checked in periodically and shared advice on restaurants. The one we tried proved to be very good. We really enjoyed our stay!
Aren

Marta was a great host and really helped us get the most out of Madrid. We arrived early and left or bags in the room while the apartment was being cleaned. She gave us great tips about the city, and had great recommendations as far as bars/clubs/restaurants. The apartment itself was very clean and looks awesome. Everything is new and functions great. It was pretty hot in Madrid, but the apartment stayed at a comfortable temperature even though there was no A/C, which was great because I can't sleep if the room is even a little warm. You could walk to local bars and cafes, and we even walked to the Royal palace which took about 40mins. Its a short walk from the train station, as well as supermarkets and tourist bus stops. I would definitely stay here again if I had to do it all over!

Lovely apartment and Marta was wonderful with check in and giving us information about what to do in Madrid. We asked her where to go to watch the soccer World Cup and we had a great time! I would say it is perfect for a couple, typical studio apartment. Very clean and beautifully decorated.

We had a great stay at the Reina Sofia Star. We very much appreciated Marta working with our son (who lives in Madrid) to make sure our arrival and settling in went well. The room was exactly what we expected, plenty of space for 2 people and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and the location was excellent for us as a starting point for our walking excursions around Madrid. Additionally, the apartment was close to the Atocha train station and made it easy to catch the Ava for day trips to Segovia and Toledo. To conclude, it was a wonderful place to go back to at the end of a full day.

Marta was very responsive and we communicated very well prior to our stay. She even acceded to our request to meet up really late at night. The place was clean and well equipped and just a short distance from the high speed train station and metro. The place was also surrounded with many restaurants and convenience shops.

It was a pleasure staying at Marta's apartment, very clean and cosy - exactly as per photos. Don't be fooled by the entry - it is a very modern apartment which is worth the price and will keep you cool on a hot day. Marta herself is really friendly and helpful, a really lovely lady! She provided us with a map and gave us tips on where to go/visit. She also showed us where the extra linen/toilet paper/towels were in the apartment if we needed it. The bed was really comfy (in Spain this is not something you should take for granted, some hotels I stayed at had shocking spring - read OLD & noisy - beds!) and it was nice to also have a couch and dining area. The bathroom was a good size - ample cupboard space for my products and I loved the sink! You may notice that the shower doesn't drain very well at the start - it eventually does after a few minutes, just needs to warm up at the start! :-) There isn't an exhaust fan in the toilet but there is a window :-) Not a big deal, I got used to it. There is a washing machine if you need to get your laundry done - ample hanging space in the outdoor area, my clothes dried in a jiffy! The kitchen was good - more than enough to get by. The area was good for me - I saw other areas of Madrid which I missed in my last trip. The apartment is not in the middle of the city but it did not take long to walk there (20 mins stroll in medium height heels!). Eitherway you can take the metro in and there is plenty to see around the area (parks, etc). Atocha train station and NH nacional is a short stroll away if you're thinking of hiring a car (book online to collect at one of those places, Thrifty is the cheapest - serviced by Hertz at NH). If you do visit, be sure to look up Gau Cafe which is a rooftop bar nearby - delicious mojitos!! There is also a Carrefour supermarket nearby if you need to pick up snacks, cereal, essentials etc.The cafes up the street are also nice for a morning coffee or mid arvo drinks. I have no hesitations in booking Marta's apartment again if I ever return to Madrid.

A really cosy and very clean apartment in walk distance to the center of Madrid. The apartment has everything you need, like TV, cooking area, microwave, Hairdryer, towels and so on. We were really satisfied with this apartment because all was really as shown at the pictures. Martha was very friendly an gave us some good tips about restaurants, bars, places to visit and about living in Madrid. If we had some questions we could mail her every time. For a next trip to Madrid, we would chose this apartment again.

Perfectly located apartment to fully enjoy Madrid's city centre! Great places to eat and chill nearby in the bustling Lavapiés hood, with all three major must see museums within walking distance. The place is really cosy and neat, with everything you need to rest after a busy day. Marta was really friendly and always available. Definetely recommendable and a sure repeat for future visits.

There's only one word: excellent, Fantastic location, quiet street, but a short walk to shops, cafes and restaurants. With metro stations within walking distance. Since it's an indoor floor, the silence to rest after long days is appreciated. The apartment is very comfortable (we were 3 adults), between the bed and the sofa bed (huge and with a super comfortable mattress) we rested beautifully. Perfectly equipped and impeccable bathroom. Even the decoration denotes the good taste of its owner. Marta and her husband: kindness, education and friendliness on all four sides, the perfect homemade. Always willing to help with recommendations and guidance. Thank you very much for your attention, it has been an experience that we would repeat without hesitation!!!!!! We highly recommend this accommodation for those who want to spend a few days in Madrid, whether for work or leisure. Thanks Marta, see you next time! Great location, clean, modern, comfortable and well equipped. Marta and her husband very kind and friendly people. Totally recommend this place to stay at Madrid. Very close to the Madrid top tourist attractions (Prado or Reina Sofia museums, Plaza mayor, El Rastro...), metro stations within walking distance. Perfect for work days or holidays (good WIFI). Thanks Marta! we enjoyed a lot our stay in Madrid. Until the next!!!!

Thanks a lot to Martha and her husband!!! It was our first time in Madrid - they met us at the airport, took us to the apartment and showed us all the places of interest on the map. The apartment itself was very cosy!!! It is quite small and very comfortable for a couple!!! Nice furniture, everything is made with a great designer's taste!!! Besides we already had some base things we needed in there - tea, coffee, sugar, oil and even a little bit of cookies and candies!!! During our 3-weeks-trip around Spain it was the apartment we liked THE BEST!!!

Wonderful apartment. Chikitin but very kuki, super clean and a very careful decoration. Much better than any hotel. I stayed in the two days and the truth is that I felt as if it was my home, very warm and without street noise. Marta made sure she was comfortable and I always had her available by Whatsapp. She did her job well Definitely repeat!! :)
