Mara is an amazing host. She was immediately available and checked in on me throughout my stay to see if everything was going well and if I needed anything. The apartment is clean, quiet, and has everything that you might need. The washing machine was really helpful. The location is the best! It's in a safe neighborhood with great restaurants, bars and shopping. The location is incredible for sight seeing. It is an easy walk to whatever you want to do in the city and close to the metro/train/bus station if you want to go sight seeing outside of Madrid. I had a fantastic time and hope the next time I am in Madrid, Mara's apartment is available!
