First experience with aBaB couldn't have been better: as a woman traveling alone, David and his kind demeanour reassured me that all the great reviews about him were 100% truthful. He is a polite, helpful and sweet host. The flat, even its building entrance, is pristine and fresh. When I arrived it was being mopped and dusted by the thoroughest cleaner I've ever seen. The room and all areas of the house are airy, with tall ceilings and beautiful sunlight pouring in. The location couldn't be better: at night, coming back from drinks and dinner at 1 am the streets were lively with Madrilenos enjoying themselves so very safe to walk on your own. I will most definitely recommend David and his flat. It is truly as you appreciate in the description and more. Taxi from airport to David is 26 euros and about 20-25 depending on traffic. Great Starbucks just up the road corner with Gran Via and Callao metro right across from it. Fab!
