Javier was prompt, spoke English (i was very grateful for this my Spanish isn't great) offered exactly what he promised, and his home is absolutely lovely. my teenager daughter thought it was adorable and it was the perfect homebase for our first night in Spain. very convenient to Puerta de Atocha train station (a 15 min walk I think) with plentiful food and grocery options around, this is a great choice for downtown Madrid where you actually feel the city and not just some highly curated tourist zone.
