Meli is a wonderful host and the apartment itself is really cute. The building is old and that only adds to the charm of the stay! The location of the apartment could not have been better...it is only a minute's walk from both- Plaza Mayor and from Sol and most amenities- restaurants, department stores, etc. being within walking distance. Meli made me feel very much at home and exceeded all expectations I had, including my previous experiences with Airbnb (all of which have been pretty good to begin with). The apartment has all that you would require to spend a good time in Madrid! I wish Meli all the best and look forward to returning...
