The apartment was nice, large with plenty of space and good size bathrooms. However we weren't 100% satisfied. We arranged to meet Regjna outside the apartment at 10:50pm but we got there a little earlier (10:30pm) due to not knowing exactly how long it would take to get there from the airport. When I messaged her to tell her this I was met with a slightly rude response of 'well I'll be at time we said before! Why didn't you inform me before leaving the airport? Will, try get to faster'. I told her not to worry, that we understood we were early and we would happily wait. She showed up at 11:15pm- 25 mins later than the time we'd originally arranged and wasn't overly apologetic.
She showed us around the apartment, which was well decorated, but before she left she said we owed her €30 for the late check in- something she hadn't mentioned to me before- despite her being late herself. When I went back and checked her page I couldn't find any note of this regulation there either. Maybe this is an air bnb regulation I didn't know about? Either way it wasn't communicated to us prior to arrival.
The pillows on the bed were very small- bring your own if you prefer a pillow with any sort of substance. Some of the dishes in the cupboards were dirty and we found an old pair of grey knickers behind the curtains. The floors could have done with a good sweep also. Two girls in our party who shared one of the sofa beds in the en suit bedroom have lots of little bites since sleeping in it- possible bed bugs? We're not sure but it looks that way as no one else has been bitten.
There was a handy convenience store underneath the apartment, but in terms of general location, it was too far to walk to the city centre or the beach. Hailing a taxi around the apartment was often difficult and time consuming- we tried to get a taxi for 45 minutes one morning.
Overall, Barcelona was fantastic. Once we were in the apartment it was fine, but it definitely needs some TLC and getting to and from it wasn't easy. Next time we would stay somewhere more central/nearer the beach.
