Description Majestic Hideout: Madrid

In the heart of Madrid's Opañel neighbourhood, this practical apartment is ideal for short city stays. There's a small balcony with space to stand out and enjoy the fresh air, though the street views aren't the most exciting. The home is very small throughout, with a kitchenette and a pull-out Murphy bed in the living area, so you'll want to pack light. That said, we think it's a good choice for those travelling for work or for weekend breaks. The location means you can expect some outside noise, but you'll be near shops, restaurants, a park, and a supermarket for essentials, with public transport close by for exploring or commuting.

Home truths:
*There is limited parking outside this building on the street.
*The bed here is a pull-out Murphy bed in the living room.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*This home is in an apartment building in a central location, so you may hear some outside noise during your stay. Light sleepers might want to pack earplugs.
*Home comforts are lacking here. We think it's best suited to those looking for a base to use when travelling for work.
*The balcony here is small without space to sit out on, and it overlooks the street outside so the views aren't the most inspiring.
*Space is tight throughout this home, so we recommend packing light.
