We had a wonderful time staying at Ruben's apartment. From the initial get-go through to after our stay Ruben was really communicative, sending through relevant info and contact details and checking we were OK. As he wasn't able to meet us on arrival, he arranged for a friend to do so who was also extremely helpful, and provided lots of tips on neighbourhood bars and restaurants.

The apartment is so well located we didn't use transport - other than to and from the airport - and found ourselves walking everywhere. The layout and design has bags of style and character, plus it was surprisingly quiet (given the location). If ever we're in Madrid again I'd have no hesitation staying, and highly recommend it to other guests.
