I had a really lovely stay at Silvana's home. We kept in constant communication before my arrival, and the check-in process went very smoothly. The room itself is spacious with high ceilings and two very small windows, and has everything you would need - a large bed, desk, an area to hang your clothes, as well as a fan for those hot, summer Madrid nights (which definitely came in handy!). While the flat is in a super central location, the room itself is very quiet. I would definitely stay here again should I find myself back in the city. I was able to walk basically everywhere, and rarely took the Metro, and this made it so convenient for me!
