My stay at Madrid and at Rosa's home was very good. The room is simple, a little bit small with a very small square window on the top of the room's wall giving to the courtyard of the building but it is enough if you are here to discover the city. Rosa's flat is located on the ground floor, it is very quiet. You can sleep on a real mattress, no noise during the night. The location is ideal ! I stayed at Rosa's home during 4 days to discover Madrid, I could visit everything by foot (Plaza Mayor circa 10 minutes away such as Plaza del Sol, 20 minutes for Prado or Museo Reina Sofia) but he if you need to take the subway the station Latina is very, very close ! For the breakfast I recommend the Café L Adoré, 3 minutes away by foot : cheap disayuno completo of very good quality in a lovely place where local inhabitants use to come, good place to start your day well ! Rosa is a very nice host, paying a great attention to her guests. I spent a nice evening by discussing with her ! For backpakers wishing to discover Madrid on a simple way I recommend this place.
