We (my gf and I) had an amazing time at dani's place. We were there for 3 days; I was in Madrid for a champions league game.

This was our first ever experience on air bnb and it was beyond doubt the highlight of our trip.

Dani's place is extremely centrally located and is exactly as he has described - meters away from the city center and gran via and very close to the metro station, which makes it ideal for short vacation trips. His place is well sized for 2 people.

By far the most notable aspect of our stay was Daniel's hospitality - example, when we arrived at the apartment he left work and came to show us around his place. He had very neatly arranged nearly 15 maps and guidebooks on the table to help us get around the city. The place was neat and there were plentiful clean towels in the bathroom for our use.

Later in the day, when I was unable to figure out the water heater, dani promptly returned to the apartment during his work hours.

Finally, dani gave us excellent dining recommendations. Thanks to him - we had fabulous tapas and paella in Madrid. On a Friday afternoon. he came with us "tapas bar hopping" - showing us to several bars where tapas are free with the drinks; the ambience, food and drinks were outstanding and this experience was the highlight of our trip.

Other than Madrid, we stayed at more conventional hotels in Prague and Lisbon. It reminded us of the benefits of having a local who is able to give more "personal" and local recommendations.

We are full believers of airbnb now, though we doubt we will ever have a host like dani again. If you get a chance, stay with Daniel! You will love it too
