My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at Manuela's place! There was a last minute mix-up in which we had to come to Madrid a day late, but Manuela was understanding and flexible and met us promptly the following day when we arrived at the apartment. She gave detailed instructions on how to get to the apartment, and she gave us plenty of suggestions for places around her apartment. The place is centrally located among lots of restaurants, shops, and bars, and we absolutely loved the area. Everything we needed we could find within a few blocks, including access to the Metro which was easy to navigate. Malasaña is a bustling neighborhood with lots to do, but we found the street the apartment is on to be quiet and private which was perfect. The place itself looked just like the pictures, and was plenty of space for two people. Communication with Manuela was very smooth and efficient, and she was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend her place to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Madrid!
