We loved staying at Silmara's place! It was very central, and though we tend to book places a bit further out so we are able to experience another side of the city, this location was ideal for Madrid. We did a lot of walking in the day and came back to rest whenever we needed. Silmara thought of everything: a hair dryer, an ironing board — even a bottle of wine to welcome us! The balcony was our favorite feature, though. Don't miss people watching while enjoying a bocadillo de jamon from the shop next door. (One note to those who have trouble sleeping with noise: people stay up until 3–4 am in Madrid, so there will be lots of activity just outside of the place. There are three layers of shutters, so shut all three for a good night's rest.) Thanks for everything, Silmara!
