Personal comments
I was very lucky to find out a perfect host to live with. The house was clean, big and new, and it was neart the university too. I wasn't in Madrid city, the house was in Leganés, but it was really easy to move around with public transports.

I love being with native speakers because it forces you to speak and learn the language. It also helps you learn traditions, slang, and what the city is like and can offer.
