Dan's place is located in a very good location with plenty of cafe's and grocery shopping within a very short walk! Since it is on the first floor with street access, our 'coming and going' was a breeze! There is a barber shop across the street that I took advantage of. Museums are only about 1.2 miles from the apartment. Taxi service is very close. Bakeries galore in the area. We found Dan to be a very communicative. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed to put together simple meals. There is a bedroom with one bed and a pull-out sofa in the living room. There was some 'street noise' at night but it did not bother us. We recommend Dan's place for your stay in Madrid!
