Amaia and Jesús are just the best hosts; they genuenly care about their guests and went beyond to guide us to ensure we had a good experience. Jesus was very nice to meet us early and hold our baggage until the apartment was ready for us to check in hours later. He then welcomed us into their apartment and took a lot of pride to show us the place and tell us its history; he then gave us a map and went over everything in detail giving us lots of important tips.
The apartment is very nice and comfortable, and best of all, location, location, location!! Subway station is 2 blocks away, traveling from the airport to the apartment in the subway was extremely easy. You don't really need any form if transportation other than your feet (being comfortable shoes) to see everything in the city.. you can walk everywhere!! It's very safe and there are lots of bars and restaurants in the neighborhood.. it was a great experience all around.. highly recommend Amaia's and Jesus apartment for your Madrid visit.. you won't be disappointed..
