From the moment I selected Constantine's apartment through Airbnb, he was extremely attentive, answering every text within minutes despite the 6-hour time difference; when we finally met, I asked if he ever slept. He picked us up at the airport for an extra fee, which made it very convenient, as he was able to let us into the apartment and show us around. You will not want for anything here since Constantine supplies you with all the necessary amenities like toiletries, coffee/tea, laundry, wifi, even nail polish remover! It was roomy enough for the three of us though you could certainly add one more. The layout is smart, making good use of the space for both comfort and practical purposes. Given the hot July, we were always happy to return to the A/C as well! There was even beer in the refrigerator, which was most welcome. The neighborhood allows you to live like a Madrileño; cafes, shops, restaurants, markets are all close by. We walked everywhere from where we were, but taxis are plentiful if your dogs are just too tired. Down the street is a great little coffee place called HanSo Cafe that was perfect for a morning espresso and croissant. Starting and ending our days at Constantine's made for a superb visit to Madrid. Thanks, Constantine!
