Marta and Gerardo were perfect hosts and the apartment is perfectly located. It's right beside the metro but also within walking distance of many central locations in Madrid if you would prefer to walk. It is also surrounded by several excellent cafe's, bars and is right beside a Carrefour & Lidl so you never have to walk more than 2 minutes for what you need. The area is also very lively and has a great atmosphere at night but we never had a problem with noise. I'll certainly be trying to book their place again if I return to Madrid!
