Location of the flat: 5 stars.
The contact with Ariadna was also easy and she seemed authentically concerned to make the process uncomplicated.
However, we found the place very disappointing overall. I feel bad criticising the listing as Ariadna seems to be a great person but I thought I need to explain what we found disappointing. First of all the place is tiny! (Which is not clear from the pictures). There is absolutely no natural light and no air (there are two tiny windows with bars). The flat is in the corrala but there is no access to the green space. There is also absolutely no space to sit down and have a meal (even having a simple breakfast was difficult). Space in the kitchen was also very limited so forget about enjoying a meal in the flat. We also found the bed(and/or the pillow) uncomfortable and we woke up with pain on our backs everyday. Essentials (shower gel, toilet paper) were provided minimalistically. We ran out of shower gel halfway through our stay. Also we asked to leave our luggage for one additional hour (after leaving the space early) but we found this cannot be accommodated. I understand that it is a favour and the flat had other guests after us, but still it needed cleaning and I thought that storing the bags would not be a major impediment. It turned out the hosts were inflexible though. So in sum, it is a place to sleep and that s it. I would not recommend this place overall. With the selection of flats in Madrid I would advise to look elsewhere. We were relieved to leave....
Though I have to say it was clean (towels and bed linen were also nice).
