We could not have imagined a more perfect place for our stay in Madrid! The apartment has a fantastic location, in an upscale park of town right across the street from El Retiro Park and only a couple minutes’ walk from a metro Line 2 exit that takes you to the royal palace, plaza del sol, etc. It felt like a luxurious retreat to come home at the end of each busy day among more touristy areas. Javier was a fantastic host - very responsive and so kind to help us bring all our plentiful luggage upstairs at check-in while we tended to a very tired baby!
