Absolutely exceeded my expectations beyond measure! I stayed for 9 days and it was truly such an unforgettable experience. I arrived on my own, so I was initially nervous because I didn't know what to expect, but before I decided to book this flat I read plenty of reviews on this flat and I thought to myself, "it just has to be too good to be true." It was such a relief to find everything in the listings to be 100% accurate. To begin, the host, Leonardo, made it very easy to communicate and answered all my questions before arriving. He took the time to not only greet me in the afternoon, but already had helpful tourist maps and activities. He made me feel very comfortable and easy to keep in communication with throughout my visit. He even left me a bottle of "Tinto de Verano
(wine)" at the door, continuously mentioned fun and local activities to partake in, as well as take time out of his day to show me around the City to point out some of his favorite spots. The location was extremely convenient it is very centrally located to nearby shops, metro, royal palace, cathedral, plaza mayor, gran via, etc. Though the flat is centrally located, the neighborhood was far enough to not hear street noise. I made myself right at home by making my own meals, washed my clothes, came in and out as much as I pleased. As mentioned above, I initially arrived on my own, so I was by myself for about 5 days until my boyfriend arrived and it is very important for me to share how safe I felt in this flat and for that--I am extremely thankful. My first time in Spain was such a great experience, but Leonardo made it special by being such an incredible host! I cannot wait to go back again, I believe this place is worth every penny spent and couldn't have been happier with my stay.
