Álvaro is a super host. He is polite, and he wants you to feel confortable at his place. He bought us some croissants, milk and banana for us to have breakfast, and also a bottle of wine when we arrived. It was an awesome surprise! Also, he told us to have whatever we wanted from his frige (he lives at the apartment), and explained everything to us about how everything works. He was great!!!

His apartment is located in a square full of restaurants, walking distance to Mercado San Miguel, Museu Reina Sofia, and also Atocha Renfe Station.

The apartment is small but confortable. One drawback is that there is no elevator in the building, and the apartment is on the 5th floor. Also, temperatures were high in Madrid when we were there. Altought he provided us with a fan and a really good "cooling machine", it could be very hot when you were not in front of it.

I do recommend Álvaro and his apartment for you who wants to be in a good spot, close to everything that must be seen in Madrid, and be hosted by someones who really cares about your experience in his city and place.
