We arrived an hour early so David recommended a nice breakfast place a block away from the apartment. It was good and cheap. The apartment is right on the happening chueca district, but away enough to not hear the nightlife noise. It is 5 flights of stairs so be prepared. The hardest one is the first time. David was inside the flat, guided us thoroughly through it and offered his assistance with recommendations for the area. He has a full mini kitchen available, which was nice because we cooked for New Years. I highly recommend davids place.
