This was our first trip to Spain, first trip to Europe in decades, and first time using Airbnb. Everything was perfect! We arrived early and Jason was there to let us drop off our luggage so we could start exploring Madrid. The apartment was small, but had everything we needed, and since we were there about 12 days, the washer AND dryer saved us from searching for a laundromat. The location couldn't be better. We were right in Malasana--crowds and nightlife--but this apartment was quieter than our apartment in Philadelphia. It is close to two metro stations and close to the Museo de Historia de Madrid. This was not on my original list of places to see, but it turns out to be something of an undiscovered gem. Don't miss it--and it is free. I would not hesitate to recommend Jason's Malasana apartment and wouldn't hesitate to rent it again, if (when) we return to Madrid.
