We stayed in several VRBO properties during our trip, including another in Madrid. This place was the best by far. The location is great! The host is very professional and the property is lovely. We are going back to Madrid next year, and if this property is available, we would love to book again!

We were extremely happy with our stay here. The location was ideal - very close to two different Metro stops, so we could get anywhere in the city easily. The owner was very friendly and had great communication, and allowed us to store our bags since we arrived before check-in time (they were also able to allow us to check in early). The apartment is very nice, and the beds are extremely comfortable! We would definitely recommend this property.

This was a well equipped rental. The furnishings were nice, the kitchen was modern and had everything we needed. The location was within walking distance to several tourist sites.

This place is great! We loved opening up the floor to ceiling windows to bring in the breeze and beautiful weather. It was a great place to explore. Madrid theater close by. There was a cafe at the end of the street. Grocery stores either direction.
Owner thought of everything to make us feel at home. There is a restaurant next door, but in our rooms we didn't hear anything. Bathrooms and kitchen are modern. A/C, dishwasher, oven, washer/dryer...all made for a great visit. We would stay here again! Off the main roads, but could easily walk to shops and restaurants. We walked to the palace a few times & walked to the Egyptian temple. Truly a lovely place!

Check in and communication excellent. Kitchen a little sparse, but beds and sofa comfortable. One set of sheets was stained, hopefully not dirty- ended up okay as there was another twin bed available. Not sure if this is a Spanish thing, but there was no top sheet, so it was comforter or nothing. Personal preference.

The best thing about this apartment is the location. The bedroom was spacious and bed was comfy, and we did appreciate the windows opening onto the Main Street below. But like other reviewers, we found the description and photos a bit misleading - the whole space tends to feel quite dark, especially the bedroom, and we didn’t feel like spending much time here. We had a perfectly good stay, but I wouldn’t pay as much as I did for this place in the future. If the rate were reduced it would be a great spot!

This was by far our favorite apartment we rented during our two week stay in Spain. The apartment is clean, comfortable, has excellent amenities and the location is perfect. The neighborhood is super cool and also very close to the metro for easy movement to other parts of the city. There are stores, restaurants and bars within a block or two. The hosts were awesome with great communication and they provided some drinks in the fridge to help us settle in before we could go to the store. It was unseasonably warm while there and the three A/C units kept the apartment cool and comfortable. A small note, you will have to walk up a flight of stairs as this is on the second floor and the lift is on half floors so no matter what there are going to be stairs to navigate - no big deal at all for us. I would highly recommend this apartment!

While this property is nicely decorated and clean, there are 2 main problems with it.
Firstly, it is not as described on the Vrbo website. The descriptio is of 'an attic full of light and space' with the living room described as 'a luminous space with several side windows and velux type which fill the space with light'. This is not the case unless you are in the penthouse. Our apartment was dark and poky. While the living area was reasonably light at certain times of the day, for much of the time, being on the first floor it was quite dark, requiring the lights to be on for all but a couple of hours in the middle of the day. The bedrooms were very dark, with the main bedroom window looking out into a central enclosed space with a liftshaft. This was not what we expected from the description and we were very disappointed. The problem is that there is only one description which describes the penthouse apartment with no indication that you could be in one of the other apartments which in no way matches this description. I think all the apartments are decorated the same which is why you might be fooled into thinking you are in the apartment described on the website.
Secondly, the apartment we were in is directly above a noisy bar. The noise varies depending on the time of day, but on one night we were kept awake until 0300. This is a big issue if you have children. Take earplugs!

Nice location close to public transportation and grocery options. Very comfortable beds and great water pressure!
Pics from the listing aren't accurate, but it was nicely appointed (could use some more forks/utensils).
Located above a bar/restaurant, so there is late night noise/smells from the business below. With some earplugs the noise isn't a problem. Primary bathroom tends to absorb the smells from downstairs so we kept the door to the bedroom closed.

The property manager was friendly and helpful upon check in. The apartment was really nice and the beds were comfortable. The only thing not as portrayed was the amount of wear on the apartment. It is evident that many people pass through and the apartment shows wear and tear.

Our stay in Madrid was definitely enhanced by the comfort of the Malasaña apartment - spacious, light-filled living areas, spotlessly clean, with excellent beds, linens and towels. The principal bedroom was large with an excellent desk/table and good storage. The second bedroom is small but comfortable, also with excellent closet space. Despite the fact that there were street and building improvements being undertaken in the immediate area, the solid windows masked sound very well, and bedrooms are located in the rear of the flat which made for sound sleeps. The kitchen is large with good quality major appliances, but could stand improvement (easily remedied) in cooking utensils and certain glassware for people interested in serious cooking and dining in house. Malasaña is well located to visit all major city attractions on foot, and is a lively and mixed neighbourhood of narrow streets, residential buildings, small and interesting shops, restaurants, cafés/bars and pleasant multi-use squares (plazas). We were greeted promptly and efficiently by Lidia, and she and Raquel responded very quickly to any questions we had during our stay. We would certainly stay again.

My wife and I were delighted with this apartment. It has everything you need, from a washing machine to fast WiFi. And the kitchen is fully equipped, but we barely needed to use it.
Malasaña is Madrid’s best neighborhood for foodies. There are countless little restaurants where you can have tapas or full meals. We started by having brunch at a wonderful place down the street, which Lydia recommended when she checked us in.
Check-in, by the way, was great. We arrived very early from the States, but Lydia met us first thing in the morning and took our bags, so we could explore the neighborhood and have brunch while the apartment was being cleaned.
The apartment, which is in southern Malasaña, is convenient to everything in Madrid. You can easily walk across the city to the Barrio de las Letras and the museums, or you can take the Metro. There is a subway station just down the street.
While I agree with some of the previous guests, who said the photos on this post don’t seem to be accurate (they seem to be of another apartment in the building), don’t let that dissuade you. The description is 100% accurate. In fact, the apartment is much nicer than you might expect.
My wife and I hope to stay there again in the future.

The photos on the website accurately describe the place. It was clean, large, and convenient to everything. A metro stop is just around the corner and there are several restaurant‘s and places to eat close by.
I highly recommend this location. One small word of advice, I did not realize how easy it is to use the metro system in Madrid. Choose your location on where you want to stay and most likely there is a metro stop within a short two minute walk. This is a great location and you can get to anywhere you want to generally in Madrid from the metro stop two blocks away.

Great place.
The apartment is lovely and modern. The beds are comfortable. Bathrooms are very nice with great water pressure. The location is good, with the only comment that there is a bar below that was pretty loud, but thankfully the crowd did not hang around late. The hosts are very responsive.

Great apartment - highly recommend
This apartment was great from start to finish. Lydia was fantastic at check-in and told us about places to go. The apartment is really cute and as described in the listing. It is incredibly centrally located and has a coffee shop (2) around the corner, a bar downstairs, an empanada shop and fruit store around the corner and the Metro a few blocks away. There is an elevator which was great. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms good. The only thing I would mention is that the pictures online do not match the apartment - the description does. I would suggest putting pictures of this actual apartment on line.

Wonderful stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is great. We could walk to many of the places we wanted to see. The neighborhood is lively and fun. The apartment is roomy and was clean. There were a variety of drinks in the fridge for us upon our arrival and everything we needed for a comfortable stay was available.
Raquel was so helpful. She showed us a map of the city and shared tips on great restaurants and sites to see. We took her advice and had a great time.

We enjoyed this well-equipped apartment. The only suggestion I would make is to provide detailed instructions on how to use everything, in English. For example, we could not figure out how to use the microwave/oven. The washer/dryer combo was a mystery. We finally figured out how to unlock the front door. Nevertheless, we were happy and safe inside our comfy and spacious unit.

We had a great stay at Casa Malasaña. Our host was easy to communicate with and very responsive to our needs. Metro station nearby, short walk to city center and good restaurants options. There’s a bar next door that can get a bit lively.
