We stayed in Enrique's apartment for 10 days in September 2012. The apartment is lovely and was clean and in good condition and came well equipped with appliances and was stocked with milk, croissants, coffee, fruit etc when we arrived. We were very comfortable and felt very much at home. The surrounding neighbourhood La Latina is very lively and absolutely full of bars and restaurants and is a great base for exploring central Madrid. A metro station is close and convenient. We were a little bit concerned from previous reviews that the El Rastro market on Sunday might have been extremely noisy but the apartment was quiet and we had no trouble sleeping. It is however quite literally at the doorstep so you would need to be prepared. Finally a big mention must be made for Enrique who went out of his way to make us feel welcomed and at home. He provided us with many useful tips and travel advice for day trips etc and even gave us a well designed and personalised local neighbourhood map which he had designed himself. He even collected tickets for us that we had pre-ordered on the internet for a concert in Spain. Enrique was a great and friendly host and an excellent ambassador for Madrid and Spain. We loved our time here and very highly recommend this lovely apartment which made our experience in Madrid very special.
