Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
With an address in one of Madrid's hippest neighbourhoods, this home is ideal for cool cats. Some fantastic cultural attractions, such as La Casa Encendida and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, are within walking distance. San Fernando Market is nearby, too, so you can pick up some local ingredients to cook some tapas back at this home. Okay, the kitchen is compact, but it has everything you need. What strikes us most with this apartment is its lofty ceilings and huge windows, creating a feeling of space and light. Overall, it's a great place for a Madrid adventure.

Home truths
Guests three and four would be on a sofa bed in the living room – if you're looking for a home with ample space for socialising, we'd recommend this home for two guests only. Also the mezzanine bedroom overlooks the living space, so there's not much privacy at full capacity.
Given the home's central spot, you may hear some street noise during your stay.
This accommodation does not accept groups of young people.

About Lavapiés
Like many neighbourhoods on the rise, Lavapiés proudly displays its rough edges. The Times Magazine has recently included it in the 50 best neighbourhoods to live in the world, and it’s not hard to understand its appeal. It’s a melting pot of cultures, bravely experimenting with international influences. Lavapiés is full of contrast — some streets have already embraced a more luxurious vibe with chic boutiques and fusion restaurants popping up every month, while others are still filled with artistic squats and street vendors. It’s the ultimate antidote to boredom.
