La Latina is such a cool area and easily walkable to centre (no more than 15-20mins). The apartment was located next to a beautiful square and church. The apartment itself was clean modern and had all I needed. The neighbourhood is a bit quieter then town at night, though this is Madrid so you'll never have silence but I like the liveliness. Communication was great from host with a fantastic intro email sent in advance of my stay. Highly recommend.
