I needed a place to stay for three nights and wanted to be central. You can't be more central than Alfredo's apartment - it's just a two minute walk to the Grand Via metro station and is right in the thick of the city. The room was clean, big enough and had a private bathroom which I wasn't expecting. There is no air conditioning in the room but a fan is provided which was enough for me. If you're looking for somewhere to rest your head during a city break in Madrid, this is a good option.
