This was the first time renting out a room instead of a whole apartment, so I wasn't sure that I would like it. Julia was a wonderful host. She was very quick on responding to my texts and accommodating my check-in requests. Her place was great; the bedroom and the bathroom was in a section of the apartment so that it felt like you had your own private space.
The location of the apartment was excellent. Right near the Gran Via metro stop and all the shops. It felt very safe and was convenient to all the landmarks in Madrid. I would definitely rent from her again.
