CHUECA APARTAMENTOS NOXI, Madrid

The property is situated on Calle San Lorenzo 22, a quiet side street in the lively Chueca neighbourhood. Gran Vía Metro Station is less than 1 km away, and both Tribunal and Chueca metro stops are around 300 metres on foot, providing direct access to the city centre, Atocha station, and the airport via Metro line 10. Major landmarks such as Plaza Mayor (2 km), the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum (1 km), and the Prado Museum (2 km) are within a comfortable walking distance. The surrounding streets are filled with restaurants, bars, and shops, including a Carrefour Express supermarket steps from the door. The area is safe and well connected, but the narrow streets and internal courtyard mean inside-facing units can be darker and noisier from building sounds.

All units feature air conditioning, heating, parquet floors, a flat-screen TV, a washing machine, and a kitchenette equipped with a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, oven, and tea/coffee maker. Bed configurations vary: studio apartments typically have a double bed and a sofa bed for a third person, while larger duplex units have the bedroom on the mezzanine level with a bathroom downstairs. Street-facing studios are on the first or second floor and have a balcony, whereas interior units have windows onto the internal courtyard and no direct natural light. Some apartments are described as compact: the studio may feel tight for three adults, particularly when the sofa bed is open. Noise transmission between neighbouring units and from the courtyard is a known factor; light sleepers may prefer a street-facing room. The duplex mezzanine has a low ceiling, making it unsuitable for taller guests.

There is no restaurant or breakfast included at the property. Each apartment has a well-equipped kitchenette with a stovetop, oven, microwave, refrigerator, and tea/coffee maker, so preparing meals is straightforward. A welcome amenity of coffee capsules and pastries is often provided. The surrounding streets in Chueca have a high concentration of restaurants, tapas bars, and cafés within a two-minute walk, including an Honest Greens outlet less than a minute away. Supermarkets (Carrefour Express and Mercadona) are within a few minutes' walk for groceries. For those who prefer to eat out, the area offers a wide variety of cuisines at all price points.

The property does not have a pool, spa, gym, or common leisure areas. Guests seeking activities will find the city's main cultural attractions-such as the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Prado Museum, and Plaza Mayor-within a 15-20 minute walk. The Chueca and Malasaña neighbourhoods are known for their vibrant bar and nightlife scene, and Gran Vía's theatres and cinemas are a short stroll away. For daytime leisure, the nearby El Retiro Park is about 25 minutes on foot or a quick metro ride. Given the compact nature of the apartments and the lack of on-site facilities, this property is best suited to guests who plan to spend most of their time exploring Madrid.

Free WiFi is available in all rooms and is reported to be reliable. A lift serves all floors, which is helpful for luggage. Luggage storage is available before check-in and after check-out if the apartment is vacant. There is no daily housekeeping; guests are expected to manage their own cleaning during the stay, and the apartment must be left tidy with rubbish taken out at check-out to avoid deductions from the deposit. The reception team (Antonio and Maru) are contactable via WhatsApp and speak English and Spanish. Key access is by physical keys; a security deposit of €100 in cash is taken on arrival. There is no parking on site. Business facilities are not available, and the apartments are not designed for work.
