Communication was quick before the trip. Gemma's friend Ramon called us as we arrived at the airport to set up a time to meet at the apartment. He was waiting for us at the apartment and showed us around.
Great location, very central. The building is well maintained and the lift was small but functional. No security issues. Three bedrooms, good size for 4 people. Basic amenities - no bedside lights, but the air conditioning was appreciated. There is also a washing machine. The paint needs to be redone, the apartment is not in very good condition.
The main problem was the noise - two bedrooms (the double and one of the singles with a trundle bed) have windows onto the street. Neither of the windows closed properly, and they rattled with the wind. Very bad night's sleep the first night of our stay - so bad that we moved mattresses to the calmer 3rd bedroom and the sitting room floors for the second night, and slept well.
