Jose was very welcoming and provided us with lots of helpful information. We really appreciated the fact that we were able to check in early because we flew overnight and arrived in Madrid in the morning. The apartment is truly located in a great area. The neighborhood was lovely and very quiet, yet still close to so much of Madrid. We enjoyed walking to Retiro Park and The Prado Museum. The apartment was also very close to the Metro, and we were able to use it to see other parts of Madrid as well. The bed was comfortable, the apartment was clean, and had all that was necessary. Thank you Jose (and Maria) for being such fine hosts and providing a wonderful space for people to enjoy the lovely city of Madrid.
