With this being my first Air BnB experience, I was expecting this 3 bedroom 2 bath loft duplex in Barcelona to look similar to the pictures were in the advertisement of the home. The initial impression was that the home was neat & tidy.
However, once we were settled, we realized the loft was not advertised accurately. The loft consist of 2 bedrooms and 2 bath. The 3rd bedroom is actually a dinning room that was converted into a bedroom which is positioned between the kitchen and entrance way. Leaving the guest with little to no privacy.
In addition, the loft is not ventilated properly. Industrial floor fans were used to cool the loft. The windows in the home were not safe and secured as the owner was able to push the window in from the outside to enter the home while we occupied the home.
Lastly, after occupying the home for one day, we noticed an infestation of bedbugs in the couch and in the 3rd bedroom. As being the guest that slept on the couch, I was bitten by bedbugs on the left side of my body. An actual bedbug was later found in the 3rd bedroom of the home. We immediately left the residence due to safety concerns and uncomfortable lodging.
Not to mention we also had a baby with us. I went to the convenience store on the same street as the home in which the store clerk advised the owner is aware of the bedbug infestation his duplex has; however, he continues to rent it out.
