Located in Salamanca's buzzy Claudio Coello neighbourhood, this modern apartment is a true gem for families or groups of friends looking for an authentic Madrid experience.

And while two living rooms offer ample space for socialising, you'll have the city's vermouth bars and authentic tavernas right off your doorstep.
