The studio was a wonderful base for my solo week in Madrid. It's very beautifully laid out and proportioned, with distinct areas for sleeping, lounging/relaxing, and eating/working. The kitchen island nicely doubled as my workspace. With all the full-length windows (all of which you can slide open to let in fresh air) the space feels light and airy while still being cozy. The bathroom was pristine, with good hot water/water pressure. And the location is fantastic. Within a few blocks of the apartment I found a great coffee shop, bakery, wine shop, grocer, etc. Other neighborhoods were usually a 15- to 30-minute walk away. Luis was very easy to communicate with, mostly via WhatsApp. On my way into the center from the airport, I just let him know when I was on the metro and he was there to greet me at the apartment. He was also more than accommodating on check-out day with letting me leave my luggage there for a few hours, as the next guest happened to not be arriving until later.
