Cristina is a wonderful host. She was very attentive, easily available before and during the trip, and from as soon as I reached Madrid, seemed like I was meeting a dear friend! Her apartment is very central within lots of great lively places to eat and drink, but very quiet once inside. All amenities were available, new/clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this place as a base to explore Madrid and Cristina for a warm experience and a fun, attentive host!
