Ale was a wonderful host and incredibly sweet. When we arrived, we were lugging two big suitcases and she came down to help carry them up to her place on the 5th floor. Afterwards, she prepared some jamon and wine as snacks! The room was really nice and cozy, and the location is incredibly central to Gran Via so you can easily access a lot of shopping and public transportation. All the great museums (El Prado, Reina Sofia, etc.) are also within 10-15min walking distance as well.
