I want to give a more detailed review and as transparent as possible. Let's start with the good: The apartment is in a very central location and a lot of sights are within very short walking distance. Overall, Álvaro has been extremely responsive and helpful, definitely very caring host. However, I would not stay again in the apartment. Several reasons. It is one of those listings where the pictures look much better than the listing. Of course, it is fair to present the listing in the best way possible. I can just say for me, it was much smaller in reality, and it was clearly more worn-down than I had imagined, and it did not feel super clean. One of the bedrooms has no window, except one that faces the corridor of the house, so I don't really count that as a window. The walls have stains, and overall it's clear that for the pictures shown in Airbnb the apartment was decorated nicely. Apart from that, I had some unpleasant occasions - when we arrived, the sofa was covered in stains so that I did not really want to sit on it. The host was super caring and changed the whole cover the same day. But, also the internet was not working properly for half a day, and was definitely not good for video calls. And, 3 days out of the week I had no hot water in the apartment. This was likely as the host said a bad coincidence, as the gas heater was new and it was not supposed to happen. But in the end, I decided to check-out and leave earlier because it was just too many compromises. All in all, even if those issues had not happened, I have to say that there are way nicer apartments in that price range in Madrid. I have been staying in this city for several weeks now, so that is my take away.
