Great location, the check in and out process couldn't have been easier, was a fantastic trip. Very well equipped kitchen, nice coffee maker, Isabelia the property manager couldn't have been better to work with.
This is a terrific flat in a great location. It is exceptionally clean. And I particularly like having the host meet us and make sure we get settled in. That along with the well-equipped apartment makes it feel more like the experience you hope for when renting through VRBO. The only thing I would mention is that the apartment is on Fuencarral, which is a busy street. But they do have good noise mitigating windows and shutters. We are planning to be back in Madrid next year and look forward to staying here again!Bravo y gracias!
Third year in a row visiting Madrid during Christmas holidays and this apartment is one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. Walking distance to everyplace you want to be. Isbelia is just great in all regards. Cannot recommend any higher. All the best and Happy New Year!!!
My stay was stellar! The apartment had everything I needed for a great visit. The location was perfect, walkable distance to the sights and sounds in Rome. I was grateful for the car service for airport transportation, the ease of communication with property owner, and the quaint beauty that is Trastevere. Would definitely stay here again!
This was our second stay at this property. The owner and local host are great to work with. Property is in a great location near so many shops and restaurants. We will be back again.
This cozy apartment was in walking distance to everything we wanted to do! Shopping, food, ect.! The cabs were lined up a block away and the metro was right there! The host was so responsive and always answered with the best tips and advice we were so grateful! The apartment was so safe for our family to stay! The beds were very comfortable! That is so important;) kitchen had everything we needed! We loved Madrid! Hope to come back someday:)!
I would definitely stay here again. The apartment is charming, clean, and very comfortable, with a well-stocked kitchen and modern appliances. The location is excellent—right on a lively street with plenty of shops and cafés. I highly recommend Billy Brunch next door for breakfast. There are also several supermarkets within walking distance, plus easy access to the metro and a taxi stand just around the corner. The hosts were wonderful—friendly, informative, and full of helpful suggestions.
The manager was especially helpful when I arrived early and the apartment was perfect! There's a terrific little cafe--breakfast and lunch--downstairs.
The apartment had everthing and more. Would recommend to everyone. So comfortable for 2 couples traveling together. Isabella was amazing and helped us find many thing by going through a map with us.
This apartment was fantastic! Exactly as advertised with easy check-in (a little early so we could store our luggage after landing) and excellent communication. Myself, my husband, and the other couple we travelled with were all quite comfortable. The location was perfect - close to so many great areas and just 20-30 minutes walking or even faster metro rides to other sites we wanted to see. We will definitely be back to Madrid and definitely hoping to stay here again
My family of four had a wonderful stay. The location was perfect - we were never too far from seeing the sights (either by foot or Metro) and we got to experience Madrid life in one of its lively neighborhoods. The apartment itself was clean and modern and had everything we needed. The host and property manager were extremely responsive and easy to work with. We would recommend this place to our family and friends and would be happy to stay here again if we are lucky enough to return to Madrid.
Great central location walkable to many restaurants, shops and sites. Family of 5 had plenty of space for everyone. Well furnished cute city apartment. Would highly recommend.
My family and I had a great trip to Madrid based out of this apartment. Proximity to metro spot made transport easy and plenty of restaurants and things to do within walking distance. Apartment was very clean and comfortable for the four of us!
The apartment was better than the pictures showed they provided wonderful surprises like coffee Plenty of extras And Rudy and Isabel were amazing Our favorite place to stay Great people apartment and location

About the host
Hosted by Isbelia Bera Santos
Born to a German father and Uruguayan mother (Basque roots), was raised in Argentina, Trinidad, Uruguay, Afghanistan and Perú, when I turned 17 I left home to go to college in the UK. A Global Nomad, with a very unique upbringing, have seen things few people have, that chiseled me to be the person I am today. Growing up all over the world teaches you to appreciate the richness of different races, religions, languages and cultures. I'm sharing my home, for you to enjoy Madrid's cafes and streets full of life, it's formidable culture and history!
Why they chose this property
A happening, hip, lively, gay friendly neighborhood, littered with cozy sidewalk cafes, tapas bars, restaurants, clothing stores, as well as boutiques, and popular markets like San Antón and Plaza del 2 de Mayo, a historic square lined with lively bars and weekend market stalls, a popular meeting spot. It’s home to the Museum of Romanticism, the Museum of the History of Madrid, and several performing arts theaters. At night, edgy dance and rock clubs host live bands and DJs, and the Conde Duque cultural center shows art and open-air movies in its 18th-century halls and courtyards.
What makes this property unique
All I can say is please read the reviews, they talk for themselves, here a couple:
"We adored Rudy’s beautiful and centrally located apartment in a bustling neighborhood in Madrid. The apartment had great amenities including laundry facilities, effective AC, fast WIFI and a fully stocked kitchen. Upon check-in, Isbelia was kind enough to provide us with great recommendations on things to do in the city, restaurants to visit and general directions on how to navigate the city. The King bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable and the window shutters were perfect for letting in the sunlight in the morning and blocking out all street noise at night. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a very comfortable stay in Madrid. The neighborhood was lively and entertaining with great shopping, restaurants, markets and bars within walking distance. Thank you for the great stay!" Kevin, July 2023
"The apartment was great and very clean. The beds were very comfortable (even the convertible sofa in the living room) and it was extremely convenient to have 2 bathrooms. The location is ideal ; we’ve never took any transportation and did everything by foot and there’s even a nice brunch place just below the apartment. Isbelia was so nice, helpful and flexible, she has great recommendations :) " Jonalynne, June 2023
"Wonderful hosts and flat , perfect for our 10 days trip in Madrid. Amazing location, steps from bars, restaurants, shopping and grocery stores. Apartment furnished with plenty of kitchen essentials if you wish to cook. Hosts Isabella and Rudy were wonderful providing us tons of recommendations and checked in on us the first few days to ensure we are well settled. I highly recommend this place for cleanliness, roominess, convenience, great place to stay and be in the middle of city! Very convenient to get to most sites...we walked almost everywhere. We would stay here again for sure!!" Teresa, April 2023
