The Bookbinder

The Bookbinder is brimming with charm and character. Towering brick walls and a sturdy, solitary iron column serve to remind that this airy space was once a workshop. Spread out across two floors, and connected by a stylish wooden staircase – not ideal for children, as there are no bannisters – the open plan layout creates a sense of freedom and allows daylight to reach every corner. The bohemian design is a perfect match for the neighbourhood. La Latina is home to Madrid’s most famous flea market and bursting with trending tapas bars and taverns, all easily reachable on foot.

Home truths:
* No air conditioning might be a problem during the hot summer months
* Guests will need to share the bathrooms
* The home is at street level so can be quite noisy at times
* The bottom level feels a little dark at night
