My boyfriend and I had a really good time in Madrid! Maria's apartment was very nice and perfectly located. However, it was quite unfortunate that we didn't receive something like a warm welcoming or any helpful tips for our stay. We arrived in the city around 5:30 pm and then we had to walk around the city with our suitcases for 2,5h since it was only possible to enter the apartment before 5 pm. This wasn't even so bad since the city is very beautiful. However, when we arrived at the arranged time (8 pm) we had to wait half an hour in front of her door for her neighbor (a really nice old lady, who, however, could not speak a single word in English), which was quite annoying.
