San Sebastián de los Reyes (colloquially called "Sanse") is a city in the Comunidad de Madrid, (Spain). It is located around 18 km north of Madrid. The city is twinned with Baunatal in Germany. It is physically joined with neighboring Alcobendas and they share a common RENFE commuter line to Madrid Atocha. Access by road is also excellent as it lies at the northernmost junctions of the motorway network to Zaragoza, Burgos, Barajas airport, and the Madrid motorway ring. This is of little help as parking in the centre is very difficult. Major stores have branches in SS de los Reyes, IKEA, Leroy Merlin, PC World etc.
