Jose and Maria were very warm and helpful hosts. Prior to my visit, they were very patient in answering my questions regarding Madrid transport. On the day of my arrival, because Maria was ill and hospitalised, J&M promptly made arrangements for Maria's mother to meet me at the apartment. This showed that they were very considerate hosts, and I really appreciate their effort.

The apartment was very comfortable and had everything I needed for a 3-day trip in Madrid. It was very near to Atocha station, where one can catch a train to visit places outside Madrid, such as Toledo. It is also within walking distance to Prado, Thyssen and Reina-Sofia museums. (Actually, most tourists attractions in Madrid are within walking distance from each other.)

I had an enjoyable stay overall. ~June 2013
