I cannot imagine that a better host or a better location can be found in Madrid. The room, which is really a large studio apartment in Luis' home, is beautifully furnished and not only a very quiet and comfortable in the heart of the city, but also incredibly cool. Luis is indeed a super host. He greeted me at the door on arrival, and welcomed me into his household. I felt like I was staying in the home of dear relatives. The location is perfectly central in Madrid. Almost everything is within a lovely 10 minutes walking distance. The most distant locations were the Prado and the Riena Sophia, and they were only 20-23 minutes walking. By all means you want to walk around Madrid. It is modern, vibrant and every street is a beautiful tribute to either the old Madrid or the new Madrid. Luis offerred great recommendations, especially for food. The mini bar is a must. Luis and Nacho are as elegant and gracious as the city. You cannot go wrong staying with them in their beautiful place.
