Ewa was very patient with us and the most pleasant host. As it was our first time in Spain, we were unfamiliar with the place so it took us some time to find a shop selling local mobile SIM cards and locating the FGC subway station which led to the villa. It did not help that the subway station (the smaller ones) didn't have escalators going up (or down) so we had to lug around our big luggages trying to find the Villa. Also the mobile SIM card also took some time to get activated so we didn't have GPS or google map to consult with.

Ewa was concerned that we haven't arrived at the villa at the appointed time and that she couldn't reach me in my mobile number so she had kindly notified airbnb to reach out to us. Finally, when the local SIM card we got was working and after getting more directions from Ewa, she was kind to meet us outside the Villa so we could find her and the place. We were so relieved to see her but not the stairs going to the villa and the apartment. We were not used to stairs and felt we were having a real work out going for us while lugging our suitcases up the stairs.

It was indeed a nice apartment - rustic feel, soft and beautiful bedrooms with lovely comforter sheet sets, handy dandy kitchen with dish soaps, a heavy-duty working washing machine with separate dryer and instruction manuals plus laundry soap and most impressively, a Nespresso machine! Enough to make us settle and feel at home right away. Good thing the nearby shop carried Nespresso compatible pods. Our coffee fix addiction was satisfied. Too bad it was raining while we were there and didn't get to use the outdoor garden patio for dining and had no chance for star gazing or city landscape viewing during at night at the top.

Overall, I will recommend this Villa as it has this old-charm feel, very inviting rooms, great value and super nice host.
