Dani was excellent at check in. Very friendly and welcoming and did not hesitate to offer tourist guidance for BCN.
When I arrived Dani explained that the previous guests had only very recently moved out and the lack of fresh towels was a result of this. The washing machine was on, but I would have to wait an hour before the wash cycle had finished and then dry them myself.
The towel by the sink in the bathroom was not fresh and had toothpaste stains on it, this made me question whether in fact the bed linen had been replaced, I suspect not.
The patio door would not close, Manuel said he would have a technician come to fix it which in the end, didn’t happen. I used a chair to keep the door shut, so that the AC wouldn’t be wasted but this wouldn’t keep the noise from leaking in from what was quite a busy street, especially when the refuse collectors would come at 2200 hrs.
On the second day I arrived back at the apartment and was surprised that someone had been inside without my knowledge.
The location of this air bnb is fantastic and offers easy access to a range of great restaurants.
It is worth noting that the tourism tax for this apartment is charged at €2,50 which implies it is a 5 star. I’ll let you be the judge of that.
Apart from the issues outlined above,
my stay was fairly pleasant.
