Spain
Really cool, spacious urban apartments, designed by Madrid's trendiest 'interiorista', with lots of live-in space, beds on upper floors, sofas downstairs, wi-fi and working/dining table in all rooms (plus kitchen etc). And reasonable prices.
Alicia on corner of Plaza Santa Ana is next to lively terrace bar-restaurants, but Laura is on a nice quiet street near 'Descalzas Reales' and Gran Vía
