Perfect, peaceful location, comfy beds & great host

Location excellent: The flat is very close to the metro station Embajadores, which is only 2 stops from Sol (a great central shopping zone). The flat is in a quiet residential area. It has 2 lifts to the 6th floor.
Great apartment: Fernando rents out other rooms & the whole building was very peaceful. The flat is very clean and very important for us: the beds where very comfy with solid mattresses where you don’t sink in the middle. We slept soooo well!!!
Fabulous host: Fernando is a friendly, professional host who dedicates a lot of his time to looking after his guests.
Fernando met us at the metro station & took us to his apartment. Upon arrival he gave is lots of tourist information, little presents and a cheap meal deal at a restaurant near Sol which he had kindly printed out for us. As we appreciate Spanish wines & my husband is knowledgeable about French wines, we arranged to meet back at his flat late evening where Fernando kindly shared an excellent bottle of reserva Rioja with us and some special crisps, and we got to know our host. He gave us another useful present, which we found really thoughtful. In the morning Fernando bought is fresh burros and offered us various additional items such as yogurt, fruit and panettone with chocolate & a choice of drinks. He then gave us addition information regarding the tourist bus that we’d asked for and wrote our instructions for our return to the airport via the metro. He escorted us back to the metro station to say Goodbye.
We were very happy to have stayed with Fernando, everything was just perfect. We have to say that we really enjoyed our whole trip to Madrid, it’s so much more relaxing than Paris and it’s suburbs in which we live & the Spanish people are lovely. We ate some really great food in the town centre too. Our trip to Madrid was too short & we intend to return to see more. Muchas gracias Fernando for your wonderful hospitality!!
