I’m afraid Alberto’s place did not turn out well for me. The place itself is clean and comfortable, but the construction going on right next door from 9am to 6pm made so much noise. After one night, I couldn’t face a whole week of staying there. It would have been better if they let me know earlier, and not after check-in (they sent me a text message informing the construction, although it was pretty obvious on arrival because the noise). Having been traveling Spain for over a month now, I do need to sleep til late in the morning, or want occasional nap during afternoon. In the end I cancelled the booking and found another place. When the construction is over, I’m sure it would be a perfectly cozy place to stay while visiting Madrid.
