Home truths: *Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot *Please be mindful of your neighbours and keep noise to a minimum from 10pm to 10am *Due to the home's layout, there's not a lot of natural light inside *Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
