The location of Mariano's place was fantastic. Even not knowing anything about Madrid, we were able to walk from his place and stumble upon all the best places. And the place has a great kitchen, front room with lots of natural light, an office, and a comfy bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Not to mention that it is furnished with the art of Mariano, so it feels like a real artists' flat. Bohemian and high end at the same time! There is an elevator, but we also loved walking up the elegant wooden staircase. It was also conveniently close to metro stations. So many extras--it was so pleasant to meet and interact with Mariano!
