GOOD: Very good location.
BAD: We had to collect the key from a different location which wasn’t very practical. There was a set of 4 keys (almost identical) on the key ring which made it hard for us to remember which key we should be using. Once you enter this apartment, you can smell the “bathroom” air freshener everywhere, walls are thin (as if neighbours moved in with you) walls are dirty.
the place is well equipped and functional although much smaller than what we were thinking. One of the bedrooms does not have a window or AC/heating. The AC didn’t work and it was very cold, so we tried to contact the host who started to help troubleshoot but didn’t take ownership of the situation. Close to 8pm we took things in hands and reached out to Airbnb ourselves who offered us to cancel our reservation. We saw that Emilio had another apartment who was available and he agreed to move us there. The apartment in Malasena was amazingly clean and modern compared to the one where you’re reading this review. The location is great as it’s in the middle of Chueca but in my opinion, it’s not worth the money, you pay for the location and end up in a less than average quality apartment. The host seemed to be quite annoyed at us for asking to change the apartment and was not kind over the phone.
