Waou Puerta del Sol IV - Alquiler Corta Duración

It’s a well maintained property in the heart of Madrid. It was very clean and well stocked with hand wash , shampoo, body gel, dishwasher gel, and dish cloth with sponge. It has elevators, which is a huge plus when you arrive with baggage and young kids. Common area was well maintained, well lit and well kept. The locking system in the door is like a vault :) . If I have to give a feedback., it would be nice if the AC was turned on already. Apartment was kinda hot inside as it was peak summer and it took a while for it to cool down. We had come late in the night and wanted to hit the bed right away. Second feedback is that even if there is a laundry inside the apartment there is no drying rack to put the clothes to dry ( I couldn’t find one). Other than that, you just can’t go wrong with the location or the property.

As expected, great views, nice neighborhood.

We had a great time at this property. My husband and I went with our grown daughter, which is why we needed 2 bedrooms. We arrived several hours early and, though we were there while the cleaning woman was cleaning, we were allowed to check in early, which was very helpful, given that we had our bags and were completely jet lagged. The location is on a less-busy street in the very busy historic/touristy area. On the street (among other things) are a 24 hour convenience store and an acai bowl place - both of which we liked. Having our own kitchen with Nespresso machine was very convenient and we had breakfast there each day. We only encountered one issue - the wifi stopped working. We contacted the property manager and someone came out right away to fix it. Highly recommend. We'd stay again.

Location exceeded our expectations. So much to see and do within walking distance or a short inexpensive taxi ride. Apartment is tucked just a bit from the busy streets (San Isidro celebration), so noise level was not a problem when needing down time. The apartment itself was "as listed", like the pictures on listing were taking the night before. One blemish would be the slow drip leak of the hot water valve above the bathroom door. One neutral comment would be on the lock and keys. It was a bit stressful standing in the street with all of our luggage figuring out the building's electronic lock the first time, and there was a small learning curve to the physical lock and key of the apartment door. Host Emi was responsive. Exactly the experience we were hoping for. Absolutely would stay here again.
