Madrid Atocha - Apartamento de 2 dormitorios

Location is very good, walking distance to major museums. Lots of bars and restaurants on the street but the apartment faces a tiny inner court yard, and overall it's very quiet. The apartment is small but has 2 nice bedrooms with wardrobes, one bedroom has TV in addition to a TV in the main room. It has all the necessary utilities, kitchen cleaning stuff, dishes, etc. There is plenty space for garbage and it's ok to leave it in the apartment. The apartment could get some facelift repairs but overall it's ok. The sofa in the main room is very hard but again it is a minor thing. We really liked our stay in this apartment.

We were not provided with the keys to the building where the apartment is located and had to wait on a street for someone to enter the building and open the door. The instructions for the apartment location in the building were sent right before our arrival in Spanish which we do not know (we were communicating with the host in English only). Fortunately, I remembered reading in the reviews that the apartment is on the ground floor, so we went through a small inner court yard and found the first apartment on the right side. It didn't have a number but had a digital lock so we tried the provided code but it didn't work. We called the given phone number and were told that we should press the key sign after entering the digital code and we were able to open the lock. We called to ask for the key to the entrance door to the building and they were delivered to us withing an hour, Only one key which is quite inconvenient but better then nothing. Overall the hostess was very responsive to our questions about the apartment.

Well designed and cozy

Little natural light

Wir haben sehr zentral und ruhig gewohnt. Die Wohnung war sauber. Das Personal am Telefon war sehr freundlich.

Dass es kein direktes Tageslicht gibt, hat uns nicht so gefallen.

Location

Hardly any natural light. Poor kitchen facilities, not enough towels for a week.
