Sara's place is located only a few minutes from Atocha train station and the Reina Sofía museum, which made it ideal for my short stay in Madrid as I was traveling by shuttle service from the train station to a workshop on the outskirts of town. Once back, I had easy access to everything worthwhile in the center of the city.

Although Sara couldn't meet me to show me the place and hand off the keys, her sister María, who gave me a great tip for terrace dining around the corner on Calle Argumosa, was there when I arrived from the airport. In case of any needs, the both of them were only a phone call away (but that wasn't necessary, as nothing went wrong).

The flat is comfortable and had everything we needed on our stay: value, location, accessibility, wi-fi and a fan for those hot Madrileño summer nights.
