Alfonso's wife met us a apartment at 2pm check-in. She was sweet and kind. We took bus from Madrid which dropped us at main train station, walking distance to Juan Alfonso's place. We used Wifi in Madrid to map it, which still works without service when we arrived. (we are from USA). The apartment is VERY clean and newly renovated. Super cozy and nice. We were there on a Thursday and Friday night so the bar below is quiet, but the patrons talk and smoke in street. (Day is super quiet). We did not mind patrons in street since it was just a low buzzing noise, and we did not mind because we wanted to be in a lively area. We WALKED everywhere... to a live show, THE HOLE, Santa Maria Plaza (2 min) Plaza Mayor (5 min) The Palace (10 min), and the very cool Puerto Del Sol Plaza and Mercardo (4 min). If I go back to Madrid, I will stay at Juan Alfonso's apartment.
