Charming Serenade: Community of Madrid

Live like a local in the neighbourhood of Ventas. The Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas is within walking distance, and there are various eateries and bars to enjoy. The area is well connected to the urban bus and metro transport network, which is handy, as most of the city's attractions are a ride away. There's a small balcony, although you may have to work out a rota system as the table here only seats two, but the dining table inside seats six people. There's also a desk in the main bedroom if you need to work from home. All in all, if you don't mind being away from the action, this is a lovely base for your Madrid adventure.

Home truths:
*There are only two seats at the table on the balcony and four at the breakfast bar, but there's room for everyone at the dining table. *There's a desk here if you need to catch up on work during your stay. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. *This home overlooks other apartments, so the views aren't the most inspiring. *Given the home's spot, you may hear some street noise throughout your stay.
