Macarena and Fernando are the warmest persons ever. Despite a very tiring journey while traveling to Madrid with all the flight cancellations and baggage delay, I received the warmest welcome when I finally arrived at Macarena's home at close to midnight, when she will still waiting up for me. She provided me with necessities and even her clothing when she knew my baggage did not came with me and arranged to have the luggage sent to her place when it finally arrived 2 days later. I fell sick after the whole ordeal and she gave me medicine and her kind words always makes me feel better. She sewed my torn pants and taught me cooking (with a special spice ;P) among the many things that she done that makes me feel part of the family. Her place is just 2-5 mins walk from the Santiago Bernabeu metro station and there is a supermarket and many bars and restaurants nearby. There is a very huge El Corte Ingles within 5-10 mins walk and the city center is conveniently accessible by metro and buses. You can also do day trips to Segovia, Toledo or even to Alcalá by train and buses. The room and bathroom is very clean and cosy with lots of storage space. You also have full access to the kitchen and common areas, which is really huge. Fernando and Laura are also the friendliest people around and gave me recommendation on where I can go for a run. I will definitely recommend their place to anyone who wants to have a great experience in Madrid. Thank you for everything and I will definitely be back if I visit Madrid again! ;D
