Worldpride Madrid 2017 was happening when we arrived in Madrid, so many streets were closed because of the celebration and a concert at the plaza just literally a few steps from Javier's place. Javier was away so Bea, his sister, was in communication with me, to see that everything was OK. She even coordinated with the concierge/doorman, Ivan, to look for us to make sure we find the apartment. Ivan help us get to Javier's apartment on the fifth floor. There was a lift, of course. He also made sure that Bea and Javier were updated. Javier's apartment was as listed. It was very clean. There were brochures of every kind to help visitors navigate the city. Everything was working. The air conditioner was a big relief after being out in the heat all day. There were places to eat everywhere - literally! It was a very comfortable and restful stay for us. Would stay at his apartment again should there be another chance to visit Madrid in the future.
