Javier was a very gracious host. He gave us many suggestions of things to do and places to eat close to the studio. He was very easy to contact and got back to us right away when we needed to communicate with him. The studio was very close to the museum campus and was an easy walk to Plaza Mayor and the Palace. My only caveat is that the studio is on the ground floor. If you are a light sleeper, this may be an issue for you as the streets of Madrid can be loud at night. If that is not an issue for you and you plan to go to the museums and/or the palace, this location and place is perfect.
