We arrived in Madrid early in the morning and, after making our way to our daughter's apartment, contacted Maria Dolores. We were a little earlier than expected, but she was very gracious and allowed us to check in anyway. The apartment was clean, and she even had the dinner settings out on the dining table. She had starter provisions in the refrigerator...and even a bowl of chocolates to welcome us. The apartment was very quiet and was exactly as advertised on the Airbnb listing. Maria Dolores was very responsive to all questions...even when we called or texted her. She went out of her way to retrieve a piece of laundry that we dropped into a neighbor's area, and brought it back before we left. Though away from the crowded (and noisy) areas of Madrid, the apartment is in a nice, safe neighborhood with stores nearby and is just a bit more than a block from the #2 (Red) Metro station that takes you either directly or with easy connections to most of the Madrid hotspots within a few minutes. We cannot think of a more ideal location for those who want to be near the center of everything, but still able to retreat to quietude. We would definitely stay here again if we visit Madrid.
