Alex's place is perfect for a couple. It is immaculate and gets a lot of light. Although it is in a busy area, still it is quiet. We were able to walk to Puerto del Sol, Plaza Mayor and Royal palace. Prado and Reina Sofia is a bit longer walk but we walked to those as well. There is a bakery on the ground floor and we got fresh bread for breakfast from them. There is a small washing machine that came in handy as well. Alex, was a perfect host and shared all the local tips with us.
