This apartment was perfect for our stay in Madrid and our hosts could not have been better. Consuelo was very response to our requests and she and her husband were extremely flexible on our arrival time which we did not know until the day we arrived due to problems with booking a train to Madrid. Consuelo's husband Alberto met us just outside the entrance to the building at around 10PM and helped us carry our luggage up to the apartment. The apartment is on the 4th floor which is the only negative thing I can say. Alberto is one of the nicest people my wife and I have ever met. He described the area around the building, presented us with a welcome gift of wine, water, olives, cheese and chips. He described all the features of the apartment and then left us to enjoy our stay. We were easily able to walk to many of the attractions we wanted to see and there was no shortage of places to eat and drink in the neighborhood. I selected this apartment because of the other reviews I read and completely agree that this was an excellent choice. Thank you Consuelo and Alberto for your hospitality.
