Rosi's house is just amazing!!! Where do I even start.
1. The host. She's great, friendly, hospitable. You can chat with her if you want and if she's got time, and hear interesting stories about life in Madrid. Or she just let's you be, if you're tired.
2. The room. So comfortable and calm! Wonderful, cozy and warm.
3. The house. It's so beautiful! And guests are welcome to enjoy the living room and the balcony. It really feels like home.
4. The pets. They are very fun to play with if you like pets, but they don't bother you.
5. The location. I've walked pretty much all around the city center and this area is the best. You have lively markets and squares, quiet locals streets, bars, bakeries (ask Rosi about the bakery - a huge toast and coffee or hot chocolate for 3.50, so delicious and filling), coffee shops. It is about 15 min brisk walk from the most central area, which is good, because you both have easy access and don't need to deal with the crowds. Also, it's at most 40 min to the airport by public transport from here.
6. The tips about the area. Rosi can really suggest GOOD places for meals.
Things to consider:
This place will suit you if you prefer to chill rather than to party. It's a quiet house.
