If location is key, this place is for you. Mar is a superb host! She gave us a map and highlighted all important places to visit while in Madrid. She let us check-in early and let us check out late. We traveled with our two kids and the place was clean, easy to find and we were able to walk the while city. We even washed two loads of clothes and they easily dried inside. (Don't worry about a dryer.) Mar was friendly and prompt with communication. I recommend. P.s. we didn't mind walking up the additional flight of stairs and enjoyed the antique elevator. See you later Madrid!!!
