Our stay at Carla and David’s place was great. The apartment was well located, well appointed, clean and comfortable.
We were greeted on arrival by Maria who showed us around, albeit she was unable to speak any English. Maria phoned David who explained to me that the cord on the blind in the second bedroom was broken and as such the blind could not be lowered. We were not concerned and made a plan to cover the window with a spare duvet cover. The blind mechanism in the main bedroom was a precarious arrangement and tended to get stuck. We were however able to get around this issue as well.
On arrival there was one broken champagne glass in the cupboard and we accidently broke another champagne glass when washing up. The corkscrew did not work and we purchased another one that we left at the apartment.
We left the apartment exactly as we would have wanted to find it and were disappointed and rather shocked on receiving a mail from David stating that we had left the place in a disappointing state. We were at a loss for words and on trying to contact him for an explanation, we were unable to reach him by either phone or by sms. It appeared he had blocked us. This unfortunately left a bad taste to the end of our wonderful stay in Barcelona.
