Maria is the best host you can have in Madrid! We had 4 good days in Madrid and stayed at Maria's place with my fiance. It was a great trip but Maria did everything to make it even better for us. We had great recommendations from her about food, restaurants, attraction places as well as art museums. She has such a wonderful, kind and positive spirit that effected us deeply. Maria was just our host when we first arrived but she is now our lifelong friend :) About the place, the room and flat is very very clean. There is a drawer and a wardrobe where you can store your stuff. The bed is very comfortable. The bathroom which is allocated for only guests is just next to the room. The room is very quite. The neighborhood is very green, beautiful and safe. There are shops, markets, cafes and restaurants. The location of the flat is just amazing. It's located between city center and the airport. It takes only 20 mins to reach the city center and 30 mins to the airport because the metro station is only 1 min away from the flat! Overall, if you don't want to have any problem with accommodation in Madrid, we highly recommend Maria's place.
