Great apartment in a great, down-to-earth neighborhood (Lavapies). Gustavo was helpful, communicative, and friendly. The apartment was exactly what I was looking for — simple, stylish, comfortable, and felt like a little home away from home. The neighborhood is lively and international, with easy access to metro and interesting little cafés (I recommend a coffee at Café Barbieri), and easily walkable to points of interest in central Madrid (a 20 minute wander easily gets you to the Prado, for example).
