Quiet apartment in Madrid, close to Atocha train station
Nice, cute, clean, quiet apartment, close to coffee, food, and train to Toledo and Barcelona (walking distance to Atocha station). The property service personnel speak English and meet you in person to give you the keys and show you the place. You get one key for the inner door and one for the two outer doors. Make sure to ask for guidance on how to exit without having to unlock the two outer (auto-locked) doors (it's not obvious).Like most apartments in Madrid, the window looks into a brick wall -- in this case, the wall of a smallish patio, which had not been cleaned due to the persistent rain, so we did not use it, but it has a small table and two chairs.This is a vintage apartment on the ground (bajo) floor. The small hot water heater is enough for 2 showers. The European-style wet-floor open-door shower creates a water puddle on the tile floor, but that's typical for Europe. The kitchen is well stocked and the dining table has enough seats for 6.The place is far enough from the merry crowds downtown to be quiet, yet close enough to be within walking distance to Plaza Mayor and most tourist attractions.
