The location was fabulous and Maria goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and educated about Madrid. BUT if you are planning on staying in Madrid for longer then 2 or 3 nights during the hottest times of the year (we came early may) maybe just get a hotel.... the heat in the room is unbearable to the point where we slept on the cold floor for relief. The pictures of the appartment are absolutely outdated or even photoshopped. Lastly just be aware that you are above very crowded bars and restaurants so even on the weekdays expect noice till atleast 1am. Overall it's all about location location location and it was almost enough to make it worth staying there.
