‍

We have some apartments with an armchair that opens up into an extra single bed and others with a sofa that opens to become a double bed. This is written in the apartment descriptions while booking and in your booking confirmation. Remember to tell us the correct number of guests so we can prepare the extra beds for you!

We do not have apartments with twin beds, but most of our apartments can sleep people in two separate beds using the main bed and the armchair/sofa bed.

The ones in the apartment are not for sale. You can, however, buy them directly from the artist and supplier: http://tuulisaarelainen.com/ and Dopp er.

First, make sure all the windows are closed. Running the AC with open windows is bad for the environment and will break the machine. To adjust the temperature, gently press the “plus” and “minus” buttons on the control panel. To adjust fan speed gently press the “fan” button and choose a speed: A – for automatic (and Bob’s fave), which maintains your chosen temperature and is the most eco-friendly. Or a number from 0 (Fan off) to 3 (Fastest speed).

About 3 min walk from the house towards Telliskivi tram station, just turn left from the house and walk straight until you come across a red supermarket called Rimi.

Plenty of ideas here - Telliskivi is full of awesome places and that’s what we are all about - making sure you experience all the fun in the coolest neighbourhood in town! See our blog for local secrets and inspiration. You can always reach out to Bob and he’ll have loads of places for you to go to.

Please use the controller on the wall to adjust the under floor heating - 5 is the highest and 1 is the lowest. Voilà ;)

The ones in the apartment are not for sale. You can, however, buy the cups from Cristina Oria and water bottles from Dopper.

The air conditioner in your apartment both heats and cools the air, depending on the season and centralised settings. You can adjust the temperature and fan speed in your apartment though with these instructions: 

1. Make sure all windows are closed before turning on the air conditioner.

2. Press the on/off button in the upper right corner. A red light next to the button shows when on.

3. Set the temperature: Gently press the arrow buttons above and below the thermometer symbol. Bob recommends 21 ℃ or higher.

4. Set the fan speed: Gently press the “fan” button and choose L (low), H (high) or HH (super high).

An extra single bed can be added to our Accessible Deluxe Chueca Design Studio upon request, but not to other apartments.

Yes, Garaje AML is a one-minute walk away and costs 20 euros per day. It’s a secure, indoor, monitored parking garage.

All of our apartments come with a double or queen-size bed and not separate twin beds. However, if you’re looking for an apartment with separate beds, one of our 1-Bedroom Chueca Design Suites has a queen-size bed in the bedroom and a 140 cm sofa bed in the living room. Reach out to our guest support team to ask about booking this particular suite. 

There is a small supermarket, Rapid Supermercados, located just a 2-minute walk away. It is open daily from 8.00–23.00. 

There is a shared washeteria near the shared kitchen where you can wash your clothes. 

Washing machine instructions

1. Press the “on/off” button to turn on the machine. 
2. Open the detergent/softener drawer on the left side.
3. Pour in detergent (liquid only) and softener (if desired) into the matching compartments. There are complimentary detergent and softener on the shelves in this room.
4. Add clothes and spin the control wheel to select a washing programme. Bob recommends “Eco 40-60” or “Quick Wash 15”. 
5. Close the machine door and hold the “play/pause” button to start.

Please note: Collect your clothes as soon as the washing machine programme ends so others can use the machine. If someone has not collected their washed clothes, feel free to gently place the clothes on top of the washing machine. 

Drying instructions

1. Do not use the drying function on the washing machines. It occupies the machine for a long time and is worse for the environment than air drying. 
2. Please take a folding air drying rack (available in this room) to your apartment and hang your clothes to dry there. Please return the rack when finished so others can use it.
   

Metro: Buy a metro ticket to the ‘Tribunal’ station. From the airport, you’ll need to first take the pink line (line 8) to the ‘Nuevos Ministerios’ station, where you’ll get out and change to the dark blue line (line 10). Once on the dark blue line, you’ll exit at ‘Tribunal’ station, then walk 3 minutes to Bob W.

Taxi: There’s a fixed rate of 30 euros to go from the airport to the city centre. Tell the taxi driver to take you to the address Calle Fuencarral 45.

Ride-hailing apps: Local people use Uber and Cabify instead of traditional taxis as they’re cheaper and easier to move around the city with. Enter your destination address as Calle Fuencarral 45. 

Download Uber (iOS | Android) and Cabify (iOS | Android). 

Turn on the TV and select the app you want to watch using your remote control. You will see that there are different buttons: Netflix, YouTube or Prime Video.

You can also use our Google Chromecast device to watch media from your device on the TV. Chromecast is already installed on the TV, just follow these instructions if you need help.

How it works: 

• Show your Breakfast Pass
• Order anything you want up to 10 euros
• Eat 
• Get on with your day
