Even though we arrived later than expected due to some car trouble and cell phone trouble, our host Pilar was understanding, helpful and very gracious. The apartment was VERY easy to find, and located pretty much right between Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol. There's just not a better location in Madrid! Even though we were in the center of all the action, the apartment was peaceful and very comfortable. There was plenty of room for 4 people, and the place was super clean. The wifi was fast, the air conditioning worked very well, and the beds were comfortable. There is even an elevator in the building, if you don't like stairs, and the Metro station is less than a 5 minute walk away. There are plenty of restaurants, bars and shopping right outside the front door. We will definitely be back!!
