When we arrived at the house, I immediately wished that we had more time in Madrid and in the comfort of this clean and light-filled apartment! It was perfectly situated, being readily accessible to the museums and historic center, as well as to the airport. Jose and Maria left detailed information about the apartment and city - including recommendations to an outstanding Peruvian restaurant within walking distance which we enjoyed on our last night in Spain. Maria was readily accessible when we struggled a bit with their induction stove top, helping us remove the safety lock on it. It is a quiet and safe neighborhood. If ever I return to Madrid, I will seek availability at their apartment before any others.
