My first time using Airbnb and it couldn't have been easier or better. This small apartment is perfectly located if you want to enjoy the real Madrid. It is a block or so from the bustling Mercado de la Cebada area in La Latina - lots of great bars, cafes and restaurants - but on a super quiet corner. The apartment is on the main floor of the building - no steps! - with high ceilings. It is rather dark but you aren't going to spend much time during the day there anyways. It has everything you need, free wifi, fully equipped kitchen, spacious living room, comfortable bedroom. Jose and Maria are delightful hosts who want to assure you pass a great time in Madrid. They made some very good recommendations on where to go.
