Although my trip was short it was very sweet thanks to Cristina's fast responses, cute housewarming gifts, and very informative/helpful property manager, Lola. I have stayed in many places around this area and other places in Europe, and for us Americans not used to smaller quarters, it can be a culture shock as to the smaller room sizes; however, in comparison, this apartment really has ample space and above all an AUH-MAZING view of the center of where everything happens in downtown Madrid. There seem to be a lot of new updates/renovations in the apartment, so it is clear that Cristina has a personal interest in keeping the place beautiful and updated.
