We loved our stay in Jose's apartment. Jose and his wife met us when we arrived and were very friendly and gave us lots of good advice about the restaurants and fresh markets in the neighborhood. The location is perfect. Its an easy walk to all the sights. And, its right on a great shopping street! The hum of the active street was really nice to hear while the windows were open. When its time to sleep, shut the windows and the noise was all blocked out. We only needed to use the subway to get to the 2 train stations for day trips to Toledo and Segovia - the apartment is on a line that goes directly to both, very convenient.
p.s. We used the washing machine while we were there and the clothes came out dry!
