Maria Jose was a wonderful hostess...Check-in & check out were very easy...Her home was extremely clean & tidy...Great location, as well...An example of her kindness & hospitality: My backpack zipper broke @the Madrid airport upon arrival...She (& her bf José) escorted me to a couple of stores to buy a new 1 & then took me on a nice walking tour of hers & surrounding neighborhoods...Really went out of their way w/their generosity...If you're a solo traveler, I highly recommend her place.
