I had a good time at Julian's home. The room is very quiet and comfortable. It's great for a good night sleep after a long day out. I will definitely go back, the next time I go to Madrid.

Julian and Gloria were excellent and friendly hosts, and the house itself was very clean and cozy.
The location was 2-3 minutes away from Pacifico station which is extremely convenient, and was had a few convenience stores nearby.My only complaint was that the single bed was a bit squeaky, but that's about it. The overall experience was very positive.
Would recommended again.

Julian and Gloria are very welcoming and assist, before and during your stay. They are there when you need something. Just have to ask.
You have your room and bathroom like at home. You can go in and out like you want.
Simply respect the place.

Idéal pour visiter Madrid, très bien situé à la sortie de la ligne 1 du métro et très calme en même temps, bons cafés et restaurants au coin de la rue et surtout Gloria et Jullian sont adorables !

If you want to visit Madrid and want a nice place to stay sure i can recommend the host of Julian and his wife. It's a little outside, so it's very quiet there, in 10 minutes by the metro you'll be in the centre of the city. The room is small but very comfortable. You have your own bathroom, which is very modern, and you can use the swimming pool, what is very nice in the hot summer. If you have any questions Julian will help you. My time there was short but very nice!
