very cozy place in the heart of Madrid

We had the best time. Elena, the owner, is an absolute delight. Very helpful and easy to communicate. The place is small but perfect for 2 people, very close to all major attractions. Supermarket is close by, so we had breakfasts at home, and even managed to cook dinner once or twice. Highly recommend!

Lovely Apartment

Well stocked kitchen with utensils, spices, toaster, kettle, microwave. Wash able to prepare a few meals and wash some laundry. Location was excellent, walking distance to shopping, museums, transportation, and restaurants. Shower was tiny for my 6’3 husband, but that’s common in Europe and we would stay there again. No issues checking in early as we arrived mid morning.

Great location and plenty of space

We enjoyed our first visit to Spain (Madrid) from the US, and this apartment was a great size and location for our 3-adult family. It had everything we needed, was centrally located so we never went underground to use the subway, and was quiet and comfortable. Host was helpful and responsive at all times. Definitely recommend!

Nice, well kept apartment in a convenient neighborhood of Madrid

The apartment was perfect for 2. We were able to walk everywhere including to the train station for easy travel for day trips. We used the nearby grocery store which was open 24 hours per day. Elena is a gracious hostess who met us with a smile and provided information on local sites, restaurant suggestions and evening entertainment. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Madrid.

Adorable Apartment in Lovely Madrid Neighborhood

Elena’s apartment is not only warm and inviting, it is in the ideal location. It is tucked away on a quiet street but within walking distance to museums, parks, shops and restaurants. It is everything you could ever want for a perfect stay in Madrid. My husband and I highly recommend Elena’s apartment and hope to return. Much as Gracias Elena. And a special thank you to her lovely mother, Luisa.

Fabulous

Elena and her mother Luisa are kind, generous, caring, interesting, fabulous people. The apartment is very comfortable. Special praise to the mattress and soft sheets. We had been traveling for 30 hours and were delirious. Luisa guided us to the apartment with patience and clarity. The location is fantastic for convenience and enjoyment. We loved the diverse community of Lavapies. Thank you.

Great base for Madrid adventures

We stayed for 1 week, which we don`t usually do but had decided to slack back a bit on this trip, we would have happily stayed longer. Ideal location for the big 3 museums / galleries, shops, restaurants and Atocha a short walk, there is everything on your doorstep and Elena and her mum respond quickly if you have a query. We made great use of the kitchen, even entertaining family twice, the bed is comfy, the lounge / kitchen layout works well and the windows open to allow a breeze. The shower is compact but very adequate even for a big bloke like me, we never used the washing machine. Fantastic, quirky pad with super hosts in a lively district. Thanks for making our stay that bit special.

Romantic apartment in centre Madrid

My husband and I spent 4 days in Elena's apartment, very close to Madrids main trainstation Atocha, the museums El Prado and Sofia and the centre. We were happily surpised with the romantic appartment, it was very complete, clean, practical. And by the perfect communication by Elena. The only (minor) point for us was the noice you heard from the street. We had a good time and think back with pleasure to this short holiday and the small nice house. Maria

Outstanding location and a gem of an apartment

Amazing location easily accessible from the Atocha train station and in a great neighborhood. The apartment is on a quiet street, but is a block in any direction to vibrant tapas bars, eateries, stores and public transportation. We walked the city for our entire stay and it was amazing to have the apartment so close to everything yet nestled away for peace and quiet when you need it. The apartment itself has a well stocked kitchen as well as any other item you may need during your stay including a washing machine and drying rack that we were thankful to have. Always the most important- the bed is very comfortable, and the apartment clean and cozy. The 4 star for cleanliness is only due to it being a pet friendly apartment and in fairness to the purpose of reviews on this platform, no matter how clean a place is, I don’t feel a 5 star cleanliness rating is attainable in a place that allows pets. That said- it was very clean.Lena was an exceptional host. Amazing communication, multilingual and very helpful and kind. I highly recommend this apartment if you are traveling to Madrid and the surrounding region!

Perfect Madrid Holiday

This was my first solo, short-term rental (3 weeks) vacation and my experiences with the Madrid apartment and my host, Elena, were excellent. The cozy apartment is an easy walk from the main Atocha train and bus station in central Madrid (unless your iPhone map is not working and you get lost like I did. Happily, Elena patiently waited for me). It is in the bustling Lavapiés neighborhood, but on a quiet side street near a beautiful church. The apartment is within short walking distance (30 minutes or less) to most of the important cultural landmarks and museums, as well as many diverse restaurants and bars. (Not to worry, several metro stations are also near-by in case you prefer not to walk.) Elena is an experienced host and it shows. Her apartment is clean and well-furnished. The kitchen has everything a traveler might need for a very comfortable stay. Before I arrived, Elena was kind to organize her recommendations to enjoy the best that Madrid has to offer. As noted in the apartment description and other guests’ reviews, the loft bedroom is up a narrow set of stairs, so the apartment may not be the ideal choice for travelers with mobility issues. However, it was very nice to have the bedroom separate from the rest of the apartment’s living areas. Elena’s apartment was the perfect homebase from which to explore Madrid.

So well equipped!

I’ve rented several Vrbo properties and have never had a property as well equipped as this one. Especially if your learning to cook Spanish dishes, everything is there. Your close to everything and in a real Spanish neighborhood. You probably will be the only tourist. The neighbors are welcoming. Don’t miss La Lorenza restaurant about 100 feet away. Casual and delicious.

A great place for experiencing Madrid

The apartment was perfect for us. It was comfortable, clean, and quiet, with a kitchen that was made more functional by the stocked pantry items. The convenience of the washing machine was really nice. It’s a place where we could have comfortably stayed for much longer than the week we were there. The location was quiet allowing us to sleep with the window open. We felt very safe. We were greeted warmly and thoughtfully by Elena. She was prompt and responsive to all our questions. She was warm, professional and friendly. All aspects of communication were excellent. The list of recommendations for restaurants was very helpful and the metro card where you can easily pay for your trips were both thoughtful conveniences. The location was perfect for us. It’s within walking distance to major points of interest and close to the metro. There are nice restaurants within walking distance. It’s a great location to be able to easily see major points of interest and experience a wide variety of daily life things.
