What a great place!
Raquel was the perfect host. All communication with her was almost instantaneous. She made it easy to ask questions and really wanted our stay to be perfect.
The apartment is quite large. 3 bedrooms and 2 baths...we were 3 adults and we never got in each others way.
The beds and pillows were comfortable and the AC worked beautifully.
Needless to say, we were very comfortable in the apartment.
But the real selling point for any traveler is the location. It could not be better.
It is in the section of La Latina that is very close to the Basilica de San Francisco (make sure to go in to see the fresco in the dome) with a small grocery, bakery, cheese and wine shop and coffee shop across the street. So convenient for our mornings. And then a stones throw from all the restaurants, tabernas and cervecerias of Cava Baja. And Mercado Cebada a block away, to boot!
All the main tourist attractions are walkable or a short and inexpensive cab rides. Or take the metro...La Latina (Green Line) is just a few blocks away.
Obviously, I loved my stay in Madrid at Raquel's place. I can't wait to go back!
