The house is beautiful - very modern, clean, and very spacious for a city dwelling. The heating, appliances, HDTV, everything is very modern and the internet is blazing fast - the baths even have towel-warmers! The outdoor deck is really spacious and calming; the privacy fence creates a nice, calm feeling. The home is also very secure - there is a locked main entry outside to the building and then a very secure entrance and windows.

Take care when set up your reservation and set up a time to meet. Willem has a very tight schedule - we only had a 15 minute window in which to meet him. He doesn't have many breaks during the day, and generally you cannot contact him during the day (he does not check messages during his work), so when we arrived an hour early, there was no way for us to contact him.

The home is a great value - it is only 3-4 minutes from the metro, and a 20-25 minute ride to central, downtown Madrid. If you are flying in or out, our cab ride from the airport was only 15 euros. If you want a big, comfortable, and inexpensive residence while you visit, this is a great place to stay.
