Great apartment! Excellent host! Clean, stylish, comfortable. Great location to enjoy everything Madrid has to offer!
I had a wonderful stay in Blanca’s house for such a low price! After reading some of the reviews, I was concerned it wouldn’t be the right Airbnb and I was hesitant to book it, but I decided to give it a chance and I must say I am happy I did! Blanca is truly an amazing host! She’s very kind, friendly and helpful. The apartment is beautiful and honestly, sparkling clean, just like you can see from the pictures! I stayed for 2 weeks and she keeps it very tidy and clean all the time, especially the bathroom and kitchen. My room was great with a very comfy mattress. The location is perfect! The neighborhood is safe and close to all the local amenities. 3-min walk from the metro station (Line 3) which takes you down to Sol and Gran Via in a few stops and 10-min walk from Madrid’s largest train station (Atocha) which is convenient to enjoy the nightlife in Madrid. Also, Blanca’s house is an enjoyable 20-min walk from The Prado Museum, Reina Sofía, Thyssen and The Buen Retiro Park. Blanca always answers calls and text messages which makes communication very easy. She’s very flexible with check-in and check-out. She was there to meet me when I arrived and provided a thorough explanation of the house, amenities, keys and WiFi code. She makes sure you’re comfortable during your stay! I would highly recommend anyone to stay in Blanca’s house, especially if you care for being in a nice, clean, safe central place. WiFi connection is great which made work easy, and also I was able to use the washing machine whenever needed. Madrid does get hot in the summer sometimes reaching 40 degrees Celsius (100 F). AC is not listed in the amenities, but I was never uncomfortable. Even though smoking is allowed, I never saw Blanca smoke inside and the apartment smells nice. I couldn’t have been happier and I would definitely stay in Blanca’s house again!
