Angel's place was exactly what we needed for a wonderful stay in Madrid. We received a warm welcome, informative introduction to the apartment and services available in the apartment. The first week in Madrid was one of the hottest on record and the air conditioning had no problem in keeping up. The balcony made for some beautiful sunsets, while sipping on a glass of red wine that our host left for us to enjoy. And being on the third floor, it made for a good view, especially because there was nothing that blocked the view. With the convenience of having a washer and a little clothes dryer to hang your clothes on, it make it very convenient to not be short on something to wear. The neighborhood was safe and the locals where friendly. within one block of the apartment there is access to the metro, bus, two grocery stores, 8 restaurants, 2 parks and a bank.
