This is the second time we make use of an Airbnb accomodation, and we are exciting of our choice.
It has been easy to reach the house, we used a taxi from the airport, and were greeted by a friend of our hosts, very nice and kind: he explained everything about the house, all was clear and easy.
The apartment of Ian and Alberto in Madrid has been a perfect location for us: we are two couples of friends, coming from Italy, and appreciated a lot the house, constituted by two bedrooms with two bathrooms (situated on different floors), a beautiful living room, where we have eaten, chatted, played cards, and a kitchen equipped with everything you can need.
The old, renovated building, a “corrala”, is fascinating, with its internal “patio”, the balcony all around and many plants and flowers. It was also very quiet and friendly.
The neighborhood, “La Latina”, is the most typical of Madrid. Nearby there are a large old food market (Cebada) and many restaurants and tapas bar. During the weekend here is held the most famous flea market of Spain, the “Rastro”.
The location is ideal for visiting the historic city center, everything is within walking distance.
But what most impressed us in this apartment, beyond the comfort and the position, is that you feel at home. It is clear that this flat has not been designed for tourists, but to live in. This feeling is precious, even if you live there only for five days.
We enjoyed Madrid very much, and Ian and Alberto’s apartment has contributed a lot to make our stay fantastic . Thanks!
