Maria Jose was a great host with clear communication about the apartment as well as maps with suggestions of what do to around Madrid.
The apartment is in a nice neighbourhood in the centre of the city but set back from the major tourist strips and only a very short work to the metro for easy access to all main tourist sites.
The apartment is as pictured, though a little smaller than it appears in the photos, but perfect for two people. The hot water was limited and would run out during the second persons shower, but not a major issue for us.
We had a great stay and would definitely stay with Maria Jose again.
