A friend and I were in Barcelona for a few days to visit a friend. We ended up booking Maria’s place as we’d had some issues with our previous accommodation.
Ahead of check-in there were no clear instructions about what the process would be and when we tried to check-in we were told that the apartment was unavailable. As a result we didn’t end up staying at this apartment but Mauricio (Maria’s property manager) provided us with an alternative apartment much further away in the Gràcia district.
Despite the hiccup, the alternative apartment was great even though it was quite far away from where we needed to stay. It was spotless, comfortable and fitted with modern appliances. We would stay there again but would recommend that more tableware and kitchen sundries should be provided.
All in all, we had a good stay but it wasn’t in this apartment. Moving forward, more care needs to be taken to ensure that the listing can’t double-booked.
