Overall opinion: The Airbnb seemed more like a hostel which we did not expect. Be aware of what this place does and does not offer before you book.
(+)
- Location (very central (1/2 mins from gran via), lovely and extremely vibrant neighborhood)
- Space (big common area and bathroom. Also, decent size room (Room A for 2 persons))
(-)
- Service & communication (Only got one towel for two persons. When we asked for extra towels it seemed like a lot of work and like we were being annoying guests. Also, the communication was oftentimes not clear and a bit curt.)
- Noise (Every single night the trash was being collected which caused extremely loud noises. Also, general street noise was very loud. If you would like to get some good sleep during your vacation this is definitely not the place for you.)
- Other guests staying in the apartment (In essence this is not a problem however, because you are staying in an apartment with a lot of other people who are there for different reasons (e.g. vacation, work, study, short vs longer stays) your schedules may clash. For example, lights which are turned on in the common room may wake you early in the morning or keep you up at night.)
- Toilet and shower are not separate
- Cleanliness
