My wife and I stayed for three nights in Madrid at David’s apartment. We lived in NYC for 10 years so we were looking forward to a busy vibe and enjoying the energy of Madrid. David was very a great host and easy to communicate with. This apartment was perfectly located in Masalaña with many bars, restaurants and shops on the street below or a very short walk. We also regularly used the Metro stop which is a very short walk from the apartment. The apartment itself was comfortable and well furnished. The street it’s on is more of a pedestrians walking street and so there isn’t much traffic noise. The bedroom is in the back of the apartment so noise is minimal and about what you’d expect from an apartment located in a fun and interesting neighborhood. I would definitely recommend this apt to travelers looking for an excellent location to enjoy the vibe, food, drink, and sites of Madrid
