We didn’t have any major issue during our stay at Angelika & Jorge’s listing. However, if you are a traveler who likes some privacy and decent cleaniness, this is probably not the place where you would like to stay. Let me elaborate on that below.
Positive points:
* The first impression is that the apartment is bright and the corridor is clean.
* A male host, who’s not Jorge, received us and showed us around in the apartment and gave us some nice tips for Madrid (food and activities).
* A fridge is available as well as some other stuff (e.g. silverware, cooking equipement et cetera).
* Close to supermarket (Lidl) and restaurants.
Negative points:
* The apartment does not look as beautiful as Angelika and Jorge describes. The living room is just a room with 2 random couches and a table. The “beautiful” patio is 5x5 meters surrounded by 4x 10 meter high walls and is full of laundry. “Decorated with care” seemed not entirely correct as the whole appartment is decorated with flee market stuff (note that this is our personal observation/feeling).
* The room is clean where you can see, behind and underneath the bed is full of dust. I’m allergic to dust so I really felt this.
* We were staying in room no. 6, that has a window towards the patio. But when other guests were smoking there (which is allowed), all that smell would get into our room.
* The bed had a sort of plank/bar underneath the matress, it didn’t allow us to sleep without feeling it in our backs.
* The shower in second bathroom is not usable. It was so dirty and clogged that the water got to our ankle. When I sent Angelika and Jorge a message about this, they never responded.
* Also, the trash can in the bathroom was full when we arrived on Wednesday and was not cleaned by Saturday. Not sure if it’s expected from us to clean the trashcan, that we are sharing with all the guests, ourselves.
* The walls are very thin. You can hear everything. There are some guests that are less considerate and walk like elephants.
To sum it up, we did not rest well and didn’t feel comfortable staying at this place. As result, we couldn’t enjoy our holiday to the fullest.
