The location is perfect—steps away from Plaza Mayor and not far from Plaza del Sol. The Museo Nacional del Prado and Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia are both about15 minutes away on foot.

Top location for everything. There only problem is the separate toilet, struggle to get in and out. Not sure why the owner didn’t make the toilet and bathroom together, that would have really helped or made the bathroom bigger.
