Juan's place was great, and Juan is the perfect host! Due to a late flight, and a train delay, we arrived at Juan's apartment over an hour late. Luckily, the host Juan set up to meet us stuck around to give us the keys and show us around (Sorry for the delay!). The apartment was just as it is in the pictures and was sparkling clean. The apartment is located in a great part of Madrid, close to tons of bars and restaurants, but a little outside of the hustle and bustle of the center of downtown. The apartment is also a short walk to the subway and the train station.
We called Juan once during our stay because we managed to have trouble using the door locks (there was nothing wrong with the locks, but we don't have armored door locks in the US and got confused). Juan walked us through it on the phone and the rest of the trip went on without a hitch.
Overall we had a great stay and loved Madrid. Thanks Juan, for your hospitality, and sorry for showing up late and bothering you during the stay!
