We really enjoyed staying at Diego’s place! It had great natural light, a lovely outside space, and a wonderful location- very central and close to all the tourist sights of Madrid. At night it was quiet and relaxing with a bottle of wine, but you’re still only 5 to 10 minutes from the action. Extremely close to Gran Via, main area for shopping, clubs, etc. to get to the major attractions if that’s what you’re looking to do.
