Laura couldn't come to let us in so one of her friends swung by, handed us they keys on the street and then left us to enter ourselves. It wasn't a big deal... Just unlike any other Airbnb experience I've ever had. Laura was kind enough to email us though and explain everything we needed to know and that the there was no shower curtain because it had ripped the day before and she hadn't gotten to replacing it. When we entered the apartment it smelled very distinctly of smoke; I had to open all the windows to air it out.
Other than this though, we loved the location of the place. Malasana is a very young and hip neighborhood with lots of things to do at all hours of the day.
