we had made bookings for this place in April for a stay in June and had informed Africa that our flight timings will be odd and we'll be checking in at 1 am in the night and only if shes comfortable will we make the bookings. Africa had instantly replied saying she had no problems with it. However, strangely on the day of our check in i received a call from Africa stating that she wanted to charge a extra 20 euros for the late check in. This was very disturbing as we were supposed to check in and it was almost like a last minute harassment. however, after i refused to pay the extra money as i had made the bookings only after seeking her consent,and she agreed.

When we reached the place , we were checked in by Africas friend Jess, as apparently Africa was in Ibiza. We never heard from Africa or jess again until our check out.

Now coming to the room. Its actually much older and smaller than the picture. the bed is not a real bed. Its a large mattress on a stand and the entire bed shakes and moves when anyone turns or twists.
We stayed in June when the weather was quite pleasant but still the room can get pretty hot and there is no fan or Air Conditioning, making it quite uncomfortable sometimes.
Strangely there are no locks or even latches on the doors of the room. you cant lock your place when you go out or even lock the rooms when you're in the room. So you cant leave valuables in the room when you go out , coz you're sharing the house with other people.
the house is located on a very very busy street and stays noisy all night long. we were very bothered with the noise and the old wooden doors can hardly block the noise from below.
another problem was that we stayed for 5 days and the room was not cleaned even once. the dustbins were never cleared despite charging a cleaning fee. and the television did not work.
the Wi-fi was perfect. there is a small kitchen which is pretty handy and for small cooking.
the place is around 2.5 kms from la ramblas. the taxi will charge around 30 euros from the airport. the flat is on the 4th floor and there is a elevator. the closest metro is universitat and is a good 15 minute walk.
all in all , i felt that the place is overpriced for what is offered. if you book early you can find better and fancier places in the same price range and better location.
