The location is perfect for walking to all the major sights in the Plaza Mayor area as well as the Atocha train station. Both Sam and his wife were very welcoming and made sure my stay was comfortable. I had some good conversations with both of them which is something I particularly enjoy when visiting a different country. The room is perfect for one person. Any noise from the street can be nullified by closing the patio/balcony door. Sam made a lot of good suggestions about places to explore. There are also a few bars and restaurants just around the corner that are very convenient if you don't want to venture to the usual places.
