I’ll start with the good things cos i’m a nice person, but keep reading and you might be disappointed… The apartment is nice and well located, close to the metro station la latina. The area is very nice, there are restaurants, tapas bar and the Rastro flea market on Sundays. The apartment is bright, it has very confortable materassess and pillows and a very good hairdryer.
Unfortuntely it’s dirty. The floor was dusty, we found hair a bit everywhere: in the shower, on the dishes sponge and even in the kitchen drawer…stuck on a spoon (surrounded by bread crumbles)
There were stains on the kitchen drawers and doors. There weren’t any kitchen towels or kitchen roll and not even a table cloth or placemats, so we had to eat direclty on the table.
The thing that bothered us the most, though, is that we asked for a baby crib, charged 15€, and it hadn’t any real bed linen or duvet. Instead, it had a table cloth with coffee stains on it folded in two (probably the one missing from the drawers) and some kind of thin scarf for duvet. However, we didn’t bother the host with this, we bought what we needed for the baby.
The host sent us messages every day, not to ask how the house was or if we needed anything, but to make sure we would leave the money for the crib and gave us very precise instructions about where to leave them. So we did. When we left, we received another message, implying we hadn’t left the money, with the request to pay it again! After our negative response, he apologised.
We won't go again because of the poor value for money and the bad service.
