We had a wonderful stay in Madrid at Dervys and Ruty ' private apt. We met Ruty who was very kind and helpful. He took the time to suggest places to go and things to do. The location was in the city centre so there were plenty of historical places to see and lots of shopping. Everything you need is in short walking distance, including the metro. The apt is exactly as shown on Airbnb. We had no complaints during our stay. The only thing I would say to be mindful of is that there is no elevator (as mentioned in the description) so just be prepared for some exercise going up the stairs. Overall, we would definitely stay at this apt again.
