José and María were great hosts! They were available if needed and responded quickly if we had a question. Their apartment is exactly as advertised and clean, bright, and cheery. The kitchen is well-stocked. The location of the apartment is fantastic! Close to shops and cafes (and even around 10 minutes away from Atocha train station) and close to the Prado Museum (around 20 mintues walk) but feels worlds away on a small residential street near Retiro Park with beautiful trees and families living there. You feel like you are one of the locals, as there are mostly people from Madrid living around there and almost no tourists. Fantastic stay and we highly recommend this place!
