This apartment is bigger and more impressive than the pictures, and the location is superb.
Our stay in Xavi’s place was good, and the place is artistic and very special.
The apartment is huge and provides an old style European atmosphere with modern art touches.
The private room is in a big apartment shared space with a few tenants, in other rooms. Xavier is an extremely responsive and
We liked our stay in Barcelona. Your place is in a great location and has a good vibe and beautiful art,
But we feel that we have to share with you the negative sides in our stay.
We were a bit disappointed from our stay largely due to the fact that it wasn’t clear on you airbnb listing that the house is shared with so many people, also, we got miss-information from Sito, largely due to his inability to communicate in English.
We understood that living-room area is ours and that the bathroom is not shared, when in fact someone used our shower and hanged a wet towel there. And there were quite a few people living with us that we haven’t met, while understanding from Sito there were supposed to be only one roommate/you.
The house wasn’t clean, the refrigerator had a horrible smell, the garbage was almost full when we arrived and nobody took the time to take it out. The towels we got smelled bad, and in general we felt like intruders because we couldn’t put stuff in our area or use the stereo.
There was no lock at the bathroom and my wife didn’t feel comfortable, especially living with so many people.
And finally we counted on putting luggage in the apartment and if there is any difference from airbnb listing you should tell in advance. This whole handling the luggage took a lot of time off our vication and was difficult because Adi is pregnant. host, and helped us when we needed assistance.
A few downsides to the apartment are that the shower is very small and not very comfortable, and sharing a kitchen can have some challenges, depending on who is staying.
The porch is crowded with plants and it is impossible to sit there.
Besides these issues the place vale for money is very good.
