Elena y su hija son muy amables. Tomaron el tiempo necesario para que mi visita en Madrid fuera sin problema. Su departmamento con mucha luz y muy lindo esta localizado cerca de cualquier transporte publico. El barrio es muy tranquilo y cuenta con muchos servicios. Realmente me hizo sentir como en casa. La recomiendo ampliamente. Gracias Elena.

My stay at Elena's place was very nice and comfortable. The room is spacious, luminous and comfortable. It was also a plus to have a private bathroom.
Elena lets you use your own fridge as well so that is very practical to cook your meals and be independant. I recommend it !July 2023

Elena como anfitriona genera total confianza y libertad. Estancia hospitalaria, cómoda y agradable. Además Elena es alguien con quien se puede charlar en el día a día y te ayuda en todo lo posible. Volvería a alojarme con ella

El apartamento es bien ordenado y limpio, y Elena ha arreglado que hubiera todo lo que uno necesitaría: jabón, champú, y aún crema corporal, casi como en un hotel. Ella me ayudó con ubicarme en el barrio, y aparte de eso yo iba y venía como yo quería, una cosa que valoré. Además, el barrio es tranquilo con un supermercado, un gimnasio, varias otras tiendas, y varios cafés (o bares, pues en fin, en España son lo mismo, ¿no?). Me gustó tanto el apartamento como los cafés alrededor.
