We stayed here for 6 weeks. When we arrived we were greeted by a company employer and helped us with our bags. It is an old building and there is no lift. It would have been nice if this is stated in the description. The stairs are really narrow as it is in an old building so bot very easy getting luggage up or down. The apartment is renovated and the space enough for 2 but i think quite small for 4 people.
We noticed the wall and ceiling in bathroom and kitchen have moulds growing so black that it must have been there for more than 5 months and the check in guy said it’s fine/normal but the odor is quite bad so we messaged the host and he said it is fine. We were not comfortable breathing in the moulds and the odor is very strong, so we bought some cleaning chemicals and materials to clean this many times until the smell was gone. The host did not send anyone to look at it or clean it and said we can do whatever we want and actually quite rude at his response.
We wanted to leave but we paid already and not sure if we can get our money back so we just cleaned it. If we are only staying few days we would have left.
There are days that when it rains hard there are water sipping through the walls which we clean also. I think because the building is quite old. We do enjoyed having balcony though and aircon as it was really warm summer month. Wifi is great speed. Local shops very near and about 3 mins to walk to the nearest beach. We hired donkey bikes to move around Barcelona and we enjoy it a lot.
I think our biggest mistake was booking something that doesn’t have a review. It was the first time we book something without review and regretted it. I wish the host have responded to us in a better way than he did.
