Garcia is a great neighborhood, and we love staying there. There are tons of great tapas restaurants, bars and shops. The local market is fantastic for fresh foods. As well, getting around using the subway is quick, close and easy.
All that being said, there were some issues with the unit.
This unit had some issues with a strong odor that would present itself periodically from the kitchen sink or bathroom drains.
As well, the towels could benefit from an update, as they're pretty beaten and old.
There's a bit of a noise traveling issue; you can hear the people above you, Spaniards tend to party until the early morning, the building next door was under renovation. This could be an issue if you're looking for peace and quite.
The host is very responsive and helpful. The laundry detergent and shampoo were empty when we arrived, but she quickly replaced them.
Overall, I'd say the place is ok, if you're not so picky.
It wasn't a particularly sunny time of year when we were there, I'm sure the patio would have been nicer if it were.
