Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Those seeking a central location will love this modern apartment next to Madrid’s Plaza Mayor. With endless tapas bars and cultural landmarks on your doorstep, you’ll need only walk a few steps off your doorstep – though if you feel like taking public transport, Callao metro station is a short walk away. Back home, the terrace feels like a sanctuary away from the bustle of the city, and the interiors boast plenty of natural light. The bedrooms are comfortable and minimal, though the pull-out in the second bedroom might not be for every guest. That said, the stellar locale and mod cons are everything you’d want from a city stay.

- No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.

Home truths
The bed in the second bedroom is a pull-out double. We think it might suit little ones best.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
While the dining table is on the smaller side, there's a kitchen bar for sharing quick meals.
Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
