Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This cosy loft apartment lies in central Madrid, within walking distance of the city's best bits. You'll get plenty of natural light here, though it's worth noting that there aren't any black-out blinds or thick curtains, so you might want to bring an eye mask so the sun doesn't wake you. The kitchen is well-equipped and the sofa bed is suitable for an extra two people, but the sloping ceiling might be an issue for taller guests. When it's time to explore though, parking is available and public transport is close by, but you won't need a car to get the most out of your stay.

Home truths
Parking is available outside this home.
At full capacity, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise.
The bedroom is quite small with limited storage space. However, it has everything you need for a comfortable night's sleep.
This home is in an attic, so the ceiling is quite low in some spots. It might not be suitable for taller guests.
The bedroom windows face a nearby building, so the views might not be the most inspiring.
There are only two stools at the breakfast bar.

Local guide
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.
