Madrid Stay
Madrid is a very big city! Lots of people and I kind of compare it to New York City. But with more history. The apartment is in a perfect location in the old town and it was easy to get to the places that we wanted to see. The check in process was easy as we met the owner and he helped us carry some of our luggage up the steps. Two things that are important to consider about staying in the old town area is the age of the buildings. One needs to understand that there are quirks with these old buildings around the plumbing and such. The apartment was very acceptable for us and we just needed to get accustomed to the little things that we were normally able to do in modern places. This is the whole point to staying in a more traditional residence when traveling. Overall, we enjoyed our time in Madrid and may get back there some time down the road.

Wonderful home near Plaza Mayor!
We loved Pedro's apartment. Pedro himself is very warm and welcoming, as is his home. We loved the personal details in the apartment and the view is amazing! Place was very clean and beds were comfortable. Yes, it is a long walkup but, to us, completely worth it. Location is excellent and yet quiet at night. We hope to stay again when we return to Madrid. Gracias, Pedro!

Great location, great host, some problems
The location was fantastic. The host was friendly and helpful, and even helped us bring luggage up the stairs. That was greatly appreciated. You simply couldn’t beat the location. There are a few improvements/suggestions I would make. The double bed in one room was so hard. It was like sleeping on a door. Caused us horrible back pain. We switched to the two twin beds in the second bedroom (the hard bed didn’t seem bother our son in his 20s). However, these weren’t great as they were too soft. You couldn’t flush toilet paper down the toilet so you had to empty a dustbin every day. Not a big deal but would’ve been nice to know in advance. Lots of dust in the apartment and hair from previous guests. The bathroom also needs some serious cleaning and grout work to make it top notch. All in all, not a bad place to stay if you’re not picky about your bed and overall details.

Pedro is awesome!
The thing everyone should understand about this place is that Pedro (the owner) is not just renting you a place to stay. He is welcoming you to his home where he grew up and will make sure he is there to help you carry bags up the stairs and show you every detail about the beautiful apartment. Because he is also a tour guide, Pedro will give you tips and directions to everything you need to spend a magnificent time in Madrid. We loved the whole experience.

Spacious apartment and easy location in Madrid
We stayed four nights here hosted by Pedro who was not only communicative through VRBO but also with me directlu upon our arrival in Madrid. He was at the apartment to welcome us. The apartment is on the 4th floor so you need to carry your luggage up and down the stairs. The apartment has a wondeful open view over the Plaza de la Provincia with the associated sounds of the streets and the aromas of the restaurant below. The French doors also house the portable airconditioner which worked well enough on the warmer days. The apartment was comfortable and the Wifi and bathroom worked well. The beds were fine although a bit thinner than we are used to. We did not use the kitchen to cook. We particularly liked the authentic styling and original touches of this home and with its separate bedrooms and living space, there is room to spread out. We had some rainshowers when we first arrived and watching from the balcony was excellent to see them sweeping across the rooftops. Being close to the Plaza Mayor (25 m away), there is enough hustle and bustle late into the evening but the noise was manageable and the mornings are quiet. This location is also very close to all kinds of food, drink and just a few minutes to several sights. Recommended when staying in Madrid and Pedro was an outstanding host.

Nel cuore di Madrid
Sono stata nella casa di Pedro per un breve soggiorno di 3 giorni con degli amici e ci siamo trovati molto bene. La sua posizione è eccezionale per muoversi a piedi e raggiungere agevolmente tutti i principali luoghi di interesse e questo è senz'altro impagabile. Occorre però prestare attenzione ad alcune sue caratteristiche che non appaiono subito evidenti nella descrizione: essendo un edificio d'epoca senza ascensore, peraltro arredato in modo piacevole ed originale, ha una camera senza finestra così come anche il bagno. Si tratta della camera matrimoniale che ospita un letto alla francese largo 140cm che per alcuni potrebbe risultare troppo piccolo. Pedro è stato un padrone di casa perfetto ed accogliente, ci ha dato la possibilità di lasciare i nostri bagagli da subito la mattina del nostro arrivo ed anche il pomeriggio della nostra partenza permettendoci più libertà per godere del soggiorno, ci ha messo a disposizione 2 mazzi di chiavi cosa molto comoda quando si è tra amici e ci ha dato consigli su locali e visite. Consigliamo senz'altro la sua originale casa per immergersi nell'autentica atmosfera della città.

The flat is in a superb location overlooking Plaza de la Provencia. We were lucky enough to be staying here during the Festival de San Isidro. Also, the morning we left there was pomp and circumstance surrounding the arrival of new ambassadors. We could see everything from our balcony. This flat was perfect for us ! Thank you to the host for such a wonderful experience .

Great location, property, and host!
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The location is outstanding for access to all major attractions and looks out from the fourth floor onto a small plaza with access to shops, transit, and restaurants. We had delicious dinners every night within a few blocks of the property and felt no need to travel further. Plaza Mayor is extremely close with dozens of places to eat and hang out. Also, just up the street is Mercado de San Miguel with the best collection of tapas bars that we found anywhere. The property is older (I believe the owner said it dates back to 1880) but very charming and comfortable, and decorated in a Spanish style with many collectibles. There is no elevator or lift for four stories, but the owner was very attentive and helpful with our luggage, so there was no issue. He was extremely friendly and proud of the property - really went out of his way to make us feel at home. He was very flexible with any of our needs, responsive, and very hospitable. We recommend it highly for any visitors to Madrid!

The property is lovely, the location is very central to everywhere in Madrid. It has everything you need, the owner is very nice and helpful, he stays in contact and is always on hand to answer any questions you may have. The only thing we found hard was all the stairs to climb but by the end of our holiday we felt much fitter so maybe a good thing. I would definitely recommend this apartment, we had a brilliant holiday.

Great location and very nice owner!
Loved this place!!! Very nice owner who let us in a bit early. We gave it a 4 for cleanliness due to two items: dishes were not quite 100% clean and there were no top sheets so you had to cover yourself when sleeping with the comforter. But the bathrooms and kitchen were very clean and we felt very comfortable there. Location cannot be beat! Just to caution those who cannot do stairs- this is on the 4th floor which in the US we would say it is on the 5th floor (ground floors in Europe is floor zero). So there are 5 flights of stairs to climb to get to this place. Nice view of the plaza and it is air conditioned. I would definitely recommend this place to someone looking to get close to Plaza Mayor. It is right around the corner. There are restaurants within easy walking distance. The owner was very responsive and helpful. He answered any questions we had.

Located in the heart of historical center of Madrid
Pedro was extremely accommodating & addressed all of our questions & needs. Apartment is located a minute walk from Plaza Mayor in a beautiful plaza with a great 4th floor view. Many restaurants & shops nearby. The only with a issue was that the flat was located on the top floor with no elevator which made it a little difficult for us as seniors. The bathroom & kitchen needs updating. Possibly would benefit from better towels & bed linens.
