Question 2

Are you thinking of visiting Madrid and don’t know where to stay?

I have a double room in a beautiful apartment in the Malasaña area. The room is very spacious, it has a double bed and lots of light. It is available for short stays if you only come for the weekend or long, in case you decide to spend more time visiting Madrid. The apartment is in the heart of Malasaña, the Tribunal metro stop is only ten minutes away. Malasaña is a lively neighborhood with many unique restaurants, bars and shops. The price per night is 50 euros plus city tax.

Answer 2

¿Estás pensando en visitar Madrid y no sabes dónde quedarte?

Tengo una habitación doble en un piso precioso en la zona de Malasaña. La habitación es muy espaciosa, tiene una cama doble y mucha luz. Está disponible para estancias cortas si solo vienes para el fin de semana o largas, por si decides pasar más tiempo visitando Madrid. El piso está en el corazón de Malasaña, la parada de metro de Tribunal está solo a diez minutos. Malasaña es un barrio lleno de vida con muchos restaurantes, bares y tiendas únicas. El precio por noche es 50 euros más el impuesto municipal.
