Elizabeth was a great host! The apartment was exactly as described in the listing. Great location - walking distance to many of Madrid's famous sights. My family including two young kids had a great time. Having air conditioning in the middle of a very hot Madrid summer was welcome! Elizabeth was very responsive and helpful.

The apartment is in the middle of a busy neighborhood with plenty of cafe's and restaurants nearby. There was a festival going on while we were there and it was a bit noisy for the last night we were there but not too bad if you closed the windows tightly. A couple of small supermarkets are nearby if you want to buy something yourselves.

The airport express shuttle bus runs 24 hours and is about 15 minute walk from the apartment. If you don't have a lot of luggage, it's a very economical way to get to/from the airport.

Great location, great host and highly recommended.
