I stayed in Nieves's comfortable, well equipped and very nicely decorated apartment for five week and I was very satisfied with the apartment and with the ambience, services and accessibility of the surrounding neighbourhood. There is almost any type of personal service I could imagine needing available within walking distance of apartment and anything missing could be accessed without need of a vehicle through the wonderful Madrid Metro system - the nearest station on line 7 is a little over five minutes walk from the apartment. The neighbourhood is right on the border of the upper income Arturo Soria neighbourhood so there are both lower cost and higher end bars and restaurants within walking distance. There are two large public markets within walking distance so if you like to buy fresh food and cook for yourself you will be very pleased with what is on offer in the markets and with Nieve's very well equipped kitchen. Nieve was very pleasant and thoughtful in all ways and I would certainly stay with her again.
