First of all let me send million of thanks to Mercedes for the warm welcoming and very beautiful accommodation. Mercedes is a wonderful person. She was always ready to help and recommended me the great sight seeing places in amazing Madrid. She planned me the day that I will never forget in my life. Mercede's apartment is located just in the few steps from Retiro Park, Paseo Del Prado, the Botanical Garden, different numerous Galleries including the Prado Museum and very close (you can easily get everywhere on foot) from Atocha station to where you will arrive from Barajas Airport. The location of her apartment is just one of the best in Madrid, I am sure. Its very important that the windows of the apartment face the quiet Street with the view to a very beautiful Cathedral. I could write about Mercedes and Madrid without a stop because my trip was just amazing from the very beginning. Mercedes, send you here my greetings and see you in Moscow if you wish to come one day!!!))))
