Gustavo did everything to make us feel welcome. Before we arrived he adviced us on where to park the car and how to arrange it.
Furthermore, he contacted us several times in the days before our arrival to discuss our time of arrival, so that he would be there on time.
When we arrived, he showed us the apartment and its facilities. In addition, he gave us multiple suggestions for good spots where we could have drinks and dinner.

The neighbourhood was nice. It is close to the metro stations Lavapies and Embajadores. Via these stations it is easy to get in the centre of Madrid.

We arrived on Monday and we had the idea that a lot of things where closed, because it was a little quiet on the streets. We noticed a big difference the following days, there was a lot of activity in the streets and there was a friendly atmosphere.
