Great location, close to the museums, el retiro and Atocha mall, has the subway close so it is very convenient. The apartment is as beautiful as it looks in the picture and has a lot of character. Alvaro was a great host, very responsive and he was always making sure that I was having a good time. The only thing that it could make the experience even better is upgrading the bath towel quality, they were not soft at all and they looked a little old, but honestly this is a minor detail for me. The apartment overall is a 10+. No doubts that I will stay again the next time that I am in Madrid
