Alfonso was welcoming and helpful. He had apples, coffee, bagels and wine for us so we did not have to shop for breakfast after traveling for 24 hours to Madrid. The apartment was perfect and was as described. It is right in the heart of Madrid's ' "Broadway" and a close walk to Plaza del Sol and Plaza Mayor. A short 2 block walk to the subway. Lots of restaurants to eat in. Alfonso had maps and spent time advising us on places to eat. The beds were firm and very comfortable. The apartment was very clean. I would highly recommend Alfonso and his apartment.
