I had a great stay at Jose Luis' home. It was clean, room well lit, comfortable, and Jose Luis was a great host. I stayed for 2 weeks it was 2 blocks from the Metro to connect to all of Madrid. A nice residential working class neighborhood in the Carabanchel area. Would recommend to anyone who wants to be close to the city, but not in the thick of it. Right off the 6 line that takes you everywhere. Plenty of local restaurants and small bars as well, with very reasonable food prices. Can't beat the price for everything you get.
