Alfonso was a great host and quick to respond to any questions I had. I stayed in Madrid for well over a month during the summer and I could not have picked a better location. The apartment is close to all major landmarks, yet is extremely quiet for being in the center of the city. There are plenty of restaurant options within walking distance. Laundry is only a couple of blocks away and the metro is practically outside the front door. This apartment is suitable for both long and short-term stays.
