这是我第一次用爱彼迎，也是第一次到西班牙和欧洲来旅行。因为时间有点长，为避免后顾之忧，选择提前定好第一个月的住宿。她家在马德里市中心东南方，机场坐地铁过来5欧元，从t4航站楼坐火车过来2.62欧元，但是如果航站楼不对的话，要先坐免费的摆渡车，然后到了家这里的火车站也要稍微步行一段距离，住家附近有不少公园，风景特别好，这里也比较安静，也有不少华人开的小店，能够比较好的了解马德里平民的生活。平时可以坐地铁或者公交车去市中心，票价每次是1块5欧元，来回3欧元。如果用公交卡买十次票的话，会打个八九折吧，但是西班牙这里的公交卡也是要另外收钱的，一张磁卡的价格是2.5欧元。附近买东西的不同超市有不少，有上海常见的迪亚天天，有欧尚超市，还有家乐福等等，就算不去市中心，公园逛逛也有惊喜。超市正好是我了解西班牙生活方式、食物以及物价水平的好窗口。我是等到离开这里才发现原来他家是有两间客房同时出租，我租的是一到两人间，是朝阴的。还有一间是单人间，是朝阳的，更加便宜，还有一张书桌，其实我应该订这个单人间，因为就一个人嘛。而且这个单人间的窗户一角能够远眺马德里市中心的风景。生活是非常顺利的，因为这里的设施是很齐全的，当然，作为中国人来说的话，没有热水壶是一个大问题，因为我们喝温水，但是这里的人大都喝凉水，有烧水壶和热水瓶的人家极少极少，给我的解决方案就是用微波炉热水喝，但是他家的微波炉有点旧噪音有点大。而且这里的微波炉起步价就四五十块欧元，和中国比就贵很多。如果将来他们家能买一个电热水壶的话，我们平时喝热水，泡茶叶，喝热巧克力和速溶咖啡什么的对中国游客来说就好多了。房东提供很多马德里旅游的贴士，包括博物馆的免费开放时间，有助你省钱。他家也有暖气系统，居住的期间气温比较低，有暖气比较舒服，也能用来干衣服。不过对客人和里面98岁的阿根廷来老奶奶，也就是女主人的阿姨来说，暖气的使用属于搭便车，男女主人不再或者不用的时候，客人和老奶奶就算在屋里，大部分时间也是享用不到暖气的。厨房里有洗衣机可以用，跟主人说一下就行，会免费给你提供洗衣粉或者洗衣液和柔软剂，洗完后还有晒衣服的夹子什么的。女主人的丈夫有辆车，平时开车上下班或者去购物，如果客人有需要的话，他们会收取适当的费用来机场接你们。女主人非常细致细心，几乎就是全职照顾客人。反正这里全世界的客人都来过，主人都有经验接待，而且最近几年大中华区，特别是中国大陆的客人越来越多，他们也很乐意接待中国。我认为有什么需要用嘴巴讲出来是最好的沟通方式。可能旺季的时语言的指导候使用卫生间洗澡间会有冲突吧，但是我没有遇到过。相反，另一间客房断断续续住进来的游客让我大开眼界，也很享受和他们的双向交流。总的来说，我非常的珍惜这段旅程和住在他家的日子，也很感谢他们家的三个人给我点点滴滴的分享，我的西班牙语有很大的进步。希望你们住进来也能有很大的收获，毕竟中国人来西班牙玩的机会越来越多，中西两国人民的交流也越来越密切。To facilitate my first trip to Spain and Europe, I utilized Airbnb for the first time in my life. I was impressed and attracted by the natural illumination, cleanliness and orderliness of Maria Jesus's apartment where I eventually stayed for a whole month. Maria has been responsive from the very initial Interactions. She is a meticulous, logical and willing-to-share host. At the same time, she's also conscious and demanding of guests' adherence to the house rules which help to constantly maintain the rigidly orderliness of the apartment. Her apartment is southeast to the heart of Madrid, seven stops by the metro to the nearest transportation hub—Atocha and ten stops to the very central of the city the SOL. I arrived from the airport by subway following her detailed directions with no difficulty. She was attentively expecting just as she always does to other guests. During my stay, I used the micro oven a lot, tasted her paella and stuffed pan. I had the privilege of free laundry. Also I never encountered any inconvenience using the bathroom. During my stay, there weren't many other guests in the other guest room. I quite enjoyed the exchange with other guests who are from all the continents but have one thing in common—Spanish speaking. Maria is a walking dictionary of touring tips of Madrid and its suburbs. While she is in total charge of guest issues, her husband Carlos It's a superb deputy and entertainer. Carlos is warmhearted and speaks some English. You can join him watching the football matches on TV. He drives a car and would become your chauffer should you make an appointment and reservation. Maria's antie who is from Argentina also lives with them. I really enjoyed her company and sharing of her life stories. In a nutshell, I strongly recommend this apartment for its complete installations, convenience, quietness, liveabalness and its faithful reflection of true Madrid common life. Caution, Maria is no hospitality industry employee, thus you are not supposed to expect hotel-like service and treatment. Verbal communication is the best. On the other hand, it would be even better should Maria choose to learn some techniques and skills of the hotel industry.
