We were a group of four adults staying at Rafael's apartment for six nights.
The location of the apartment is great...Malasana Neighbourhood.
It is very central...lots of restaurants,bars and entertainment and shopping. Walking distance or a short subway ride to most attractions in Madrid.
The apartment is more than adequate. Quite large, two bedrooms plenty of hot water. The kitchen is well equipped and includes a washing machine that was very much appreciated. The building also has an elevator.
Rafael met us at the apartment and couldn't have been more helpful. On a map he marked restaurants, tapas bars, shopping areas and all the sights we would be going to see in Madrid.
Leaving the best for last...the outdoor patio of the apartment was a huge bonus. Whether we were enjoying breakfast or sitting outside enjoying a glass of wine in the evening watching the sun go down we just loved it!
I would not hesitate to stay at Rafael's again.
Thank you Rafael!
