If I could give Iryna and Oscar's place more than 5 stars, I would! Their apartment is furnished to a very high standard, with comfortable beds and sofa. It's also very cool - which is ideal in the hot Spanish summer! The location is also great - not in a touristy area so very quiet, but only 2 mins walk from the nearest Metro station (which also has a big mall and supermarkets nearby) and the temple and Palace. It's also only about 15 mins walk from the 'tourist' areas such as Plaza Mayor. I could not recommend their place more, which along with their great friendly hospitality makes for a perfect stay in Madrid.
