Antonio made us feel very welcome indeed by coming to meet us at the station, in his car, because it was dark and raining when we got to Madrid! A totally unexpected and very welcoming start!
His apartment is comfortable, warm and clean; very newly decorated and furnished with all the basic necessities, and when we had a little problem with the shower Antonio quickly came round to sort it out.
The situation of the flat is very handy for lovely walks in El Retiro Park, which also offers a short cut to some of the best Museums in Madrid, for those who enjoy a good walk.
The flat could do with some more basic information for guests to help them find their way around Madrid, and also the immediate neighbourhood, local shops and restaurants for example, and perhaps a map of the metro and bus routes. But altogether we were very happy and comfortable for our 6 day stay in Antonio's flat.
