I really enjoyed staying at Erika's place. She was more than helpful before I even arrived, assisting me with directions and giving me advice. Check-in was a breeze, and the apartment is located centrally, making it easy to access public transport, as well as walking to the many great shops in the area. Erika was a great host, very hospitable and friendly, and it was a delight to spend time with her when she showed me around some of the popular spots in Madrid, as well as places she regularly went to herself. I would most definitely return to Erika's apartment when I am next in Madrid.
