The Open Library

Holiday Rental Description

This home is far from a pristine condition, but we're sure you can spot the wear and tear from the photos. The exposed wooden beams and the older-looking elements help create a special kind of charm that's hard to find in Madrid these days. The Open Library might also have one of the finest kitchens we've seen, equipped with enough dishes space to cook for a small army. The fact that it's also located within walking distance from the Prado and Puerta del sol makes this home a great, relaxed stay.

Home truths:
* There is no elevator to this second floor home - those with limited mobility or heavy suitcases beware
* We found the kitchen cabinets to be quite messy
* The third bedroom doesn't have a door - only a curtain
* Some of the bathrooms don't have the best ventilation
* When we visited, we also saw spotted some dust due to a recent renovation
