Rafa and Ali’s apartment is sun-filled, well equipped, clean and close to the metro. If you are looking for an experience that will allow you to learn how many of the peole in Madrid live you will enjoy this spot. The neighbours are friendly. Sitting out on the balcony enjoying a “cold one” after a day of sight seeing is a treat. You might even enjoy “conversing” with the parrot across the way.
Upon our arrival Rafa welcomed us and took the time to give a thorough orientation to the apartment and the area. There’s even a great Spanish restaurant right across the street. When we were there at lunch the first day El Alamo was packed!!! (The Salad with Fruits de Mare was excellent - it’s a hot dish). Most of the locals ordered the daily special. - a three course meal at a very reasonable price.
The apartment is equipped with a washing machine and rack for drying clothes - iron as well.
We were delighted with our stay.
