A decent, if basic, apartment in a great location; clean but a bit dated. Excellent communication from hosts.
Pros
Communication: the hosts are responsive to email and WhatsApp and help sort minor problems quickly. They’re polite, knowledgeable and helpful.
Views: beautiful views of Spinola bay and a lovely balcony to enjoy them from.
Living room: nice, open and spacious, plenty of room for 8 people.
Points to consider
Decor: the apartment looks a little tired. Nothing terrible but not quite as nice as the pictures.
Noise: the main bedroom faces Spinola street and the window is single glazed. During our stay, bin men arrived at 5:00am daily and made quite a lot of noise. The other bedrooms are quiet.
Electricity: the apartment is metered. The hosts are clear about this in the listing and add credit prior to your stay. Our party of 7 (making moderate, but not excessive, use of air con) used our allowance after three days and needed to add a further €60 to cover the remaining four days of our stay.
