A gem hidden in Madrid
Our stay in Madrid was wonderful in this apartment. This is a quiet neighborhood with room for an average family to easily sleep (2 adults 3 kids). Our hostess was incredibly friendly and met us at the apartment to orient us for our stay. She walked us through each room, gave us directions to some of the major sights, and told of some of the best restaurants to eat that only the locals know about. She even helped us locate the nearest grocery store where my wife could find food because of some of her food allergies. She then sent us links to each of the sights and restaurants accessible on our phones. She even handled calling a taxi for us on our last day to get to the airport. She was a very gracious lady and spoke fluently in both English and Spanish. Whenever we had any questions, our hostess responded quickly and with good information.From this apartment, we spent several days walking all over the city of Madrid. If you are in reasonable shape, walking through the city is the way to go. It is about a 15 min walk to the Palacio Real and the nearby Plaza Mayor. We also walked from here to the Prado Museum and the Retiro Park with stops along the way at the Plaza del Sol.Whether day or night, we felt very safe in this neighborhood and were not afraid to venture out for sightseeing or for dinner. The few neighbors we saw were also very friendly. The next time we are in Madrid, we will definitely plan to stay here again.
