Juan and Ricardo's place is ideally located especially if you want to be close to the gay area of Madrid. It is very close to a subway stop (unfortunately closed when we were there) but we enjoyed the walk to all the major tourist sites and to shopping areas. We ate many meals in the flat, but there were lots of choices for eating out. The flat windows looks out over a side street which isn't very busy with traffic or people, so not overly noisy. The shower works well. The bed is comfortable and there is lots of room to store clothes in the closet or in the chest of drawers. In short, if this area of Madrid is to your taste, it's a great place to stay.
