Ruti and Dervys are fantastic hosts and really made a huge effort to ensure our first trip to Madrid was a fantastic one. The accommodation was ideally located, perfectly clean and very well appointed throughout. Communication with the hosts was really great from booking stage onwards and we were very impressed how much care and attention Ruti took in introducing us to the facilities in the apartment as well as giving us some great tips on what to do and where to go whilst in Madrid. There were plenty of maps and guides in the apartment and these coupled with Ruti's recommendations made it possible to spend time in all of the key areas seeing many of the fabulous things Madrid has to offer. Chueca, La Latina and Gran Via were within close walking distance and great for sightseeing, hanging out and soaking up Madrids vibrant atmosphere. We also loved the shopping, dining out and visiting the fantastic bars in Salamanca just a short and inexpensive cab ride away. Thank you Ruti and Dervys - you made a short trip a really memorable one for us.
