This was a great place to start each day of touring Madrid. It is a five minute walk to the subway and at least three bus lines; but there is no noise problem.
Jose is a great host and is fluent in English and Spanish so communication was always possible.
The room is clean and Jose provided a fan when the temperature got high without having to ask. If you want to talk he is there to talk or if not you are free to be on your own.
If you smoke there is an ash tray in the room.
The only problem was that one of the bathroom faucets broke but I let Jose know and he called a plumber the same day and had it fixed the day after.
Staying at Jose's felt like staying at a friend's house for a bit, but in a good way.
