We had a wonderful 3 days in Luz's fantastic flat. The flat was spotlessly clean and tastefully and thoughtfully decorated. She met me at the flat (she lives only a street or so away), showed me around so I knew how all the gadgets worked, and left us with a bottle of wine and cakes!

The flat is superbly located across the road from the Plaza Mayor and the Mercado de San Miguel and we ate at the market every day. Its walking distance from there to the Prado, the Palace, and most of the rest of the things would want to see in Madrid. The flat is at the back of the building with a balcony looking out onto the street behind Calle Mayor which means you don't get all the noise from the main street and can enjoy the open doors.

The flat itself would be best suited for a couple - the bed is in a little loft accessed by a ladder (so you want to be reasonably agile). The loft is open to the apartment below - so you would want any friends staying on the sofa below to be comfortable with that. The flat is little but really well laid out and very welcoming.

Thank you Luz for letting us experience Madrid from such a wonderful home.
