I chose Gabriela's place based on the neighborhood and location, since I used to live in Madrid and knew where I wanted to be situated on this trip. The flat is very well connected to the rest of the city - it is in walking distance of many places and has easy access to a number of metro stops. You'll find a lot to eat and do within the surrounding neighborhood. The flat itself is very well organized, the kitchen is great - I made great use of it, and the washer was beneficial since we were traveling light.
