Carmen's place is centrally located, easy walking distances to the old city of Madrid. The apartment is on an pebbled uphill street, hide away from the main roads so it is very quiet at night. La Latina's Restaurants and bar are few blocks away. If you stay there on Sunday, the famous Madrid El Rastro Flea market is right under the apartment. At 8 am from the window, you can observer how different vendors setting up their stands! During the 2-day stay, we visited all major sightseeing spots on foot, only took taxi twice that's to/ from airport and train station with luggage.
The apartment has all the amenity you need, AC in every room, cozy living room, well equipped kitchen, fully stocked bathroom and laundry. Most importantly, the place is SUPER CLEAN. Our group of 2 families, 8 adults thoroughly enjoyed the comfortable staying.
What I appreciated the most is the hospitality of the hosts. Carmen is kind and accommodating. She waited with her English-speaking daughter for our late arrival at 11:30 PM. They patiently show us the apartment and explained where things are in detail. They shared local restaurant info and gave advice how to avoid being taken advantage of as foreign tourists. At late night we had a problem with key and asked her to come on the next day to help, instead, she came immediately with her daughter and husband to fix it and that was at 1 AM! Having a great host to taking care of you just give you such a peace of mind while traveling. I would recommend her and this place to anyone who is going to Madrid.
