Oscar was an excellent host. He met us at the apartment when we arrived and helped us get our luggage up the stairs. The apartment was clean and decorated very nicely. Made our first stop on Spain easy and comfortable. Would recommend this place to all my family and friend planning their trip to Madrid. It didn't hurt that there was an amazing specialty beer store called Be Hoppy and a place with delicious empanadas a few doors down from the flat. Great trip!!
