Unfortunately we weren't able to enjoy the apartment much since our flights were delayed for two consecutive days. However, we did pay for the apartment for the entire time so it would've been appreciated if the air conditioning would have been on prior to our arrival. The heat was intense and to arrive into the apartment with no air conditioning was extremely disappointing after lugging up all of our luggage up 3 stories of stairs. I understand there is nothing that can be done about a heat wave, but having the air conditioner turned on the evening before (when we had already paid for the prior 2 nights stay) would have been appreciated. The air conditioner definitely does not cool the apartment enough so it made for a miserable night's sleep for us. I do recognize European air conditioner standards and American air conditioner standards are different so I do not fault Alejandro, but I did suggest providing a fan for each bedroom during the hot summer months. The apartment itself was lovely and we wished we would have been able to enjoy more time. We would LOVE to return for another trip (next time NOT in the summer) so we would not melt.
