The elegant combination of Nordic interior design styles with fashionable industrial fittings make this newly renovated apartment a great choice. It's genuinely cosy and comfortable and the original artwork on the walls gives it a distinctly homey vibe. Two sweet balconies look out onto the typically graffitied streets of trendy Malasaña neighbourhood, and a tonne of quirky cafes, bakeries, restaurants and vintage shops are all close by. Ideal for a younger crowd, it's a ten-minute walk to central Gran Via, and fifteen to the busy Puerta del Sol.

Home truths
Access to this apartment is by stairs only – not suitable for wheelchair users
Malasaña is brilliantly vibrant area caked in graffiti – those looking for something a bit cleaner and more conservative should look elsewhere
We're admittedly quite a picky bunch but the provision of toilet paper and complimentary toiletries is not as generous as we would want it to be

The nature of the hot water supply means that it can run after several consecutive showers
Three guests can sleep here if one of you takes the sofa bed in the living room
