Horrible experience. Some of the bad points:
i.	When I arrived, the cleaning lady, who said would be waiting for me, wasn’t there. I had to wait standing with my pieces of luggage after a long trip till she arrived. Bad start.
ii.	The air conditioning wasn’t working. In Valencia temperatures were reaching 42 Celsius degrees by those days, and it was very humid. I felt really bad in the apartment. Sometimes I could barely breath. If I had a poorer health, I could have easily died. The technicians came after four days of wait to fix the problem. I was offered to have a reimbursement and move out. I did look for options on Airbnb, but to start another rental immediately I found very few options in similar prices, and all of them were away from the city center, where I was, and the apartments available were much worse. So, if I wanted to move to a similar place, if I managed to find one, I’d have to pay substantially more. I could have been received the option to move to a hotel until the problem was fixed, but I did not receive such an offer.
iii.	I sent a message to the host asking if she could provide me with a ventilator to lessen the heat burden, but I didn`t get any response. Obtaining a ventilator wouldn’t have been very difficult.
iv.	There was dirty in the apartment, inside and in the terrace.
v.	I didn’t find any extra bed sheets to replace the one on the bed.
vi.	The air conditioning of the apartment is right in front of the bed. The cold air that goes at the person who is lying in the bed can easily make him or her sick while sleeping. So I had to sleep with it turned off, and could barely sleep, because of the heat. Now I’m in Dublin, Ireland, and am sleeping much better.
vii.	Inside the apartment I could frequently hear the noise made by the elevators. Another review commented this, but unfortunately, I didn’t pay attention to it. It was very annoying.
viii.	When Gaia asked me to talk with her husband about the air conditioning which was not working, I had the impression he was doing a favor in talking to me.
ix.	There was as leak on the bathroom ceiling. I could hear all night the drops of water falling on the ground every so often.
x.	There were frequent and annoying noises from the neighbors.
xi.	I sent a message to the host saying I’d be leaving on June 30th 2021 until 11am, which I did, but got no response. Nobody came to check the apartment with me before I left. I left the keys on a table and closed the door. I left the apartment as I found it: very clean and tidy, as I always do. Just please check the reviews by previous hosts about me. All of them are positive. Anything can happen in an apartment after the renter has left it. I’m not responsible for any damages incurred before or after the rental period. Attention, you may be charged for damages you didn’t cause.
xii.	Buyer beware. Be advised. I’ll never more rent anything from Gaia. Not even getting paid to do so. How can anyone rent an apartment with the air conditioning not working, in the midst of Valencia’s summer? It’s not that the equipment broke down in the middle of the stay. It’s that no cold air was coming out from the get-go. This could have easily been verified before I arrived. According to the technicians, it was lack of gas. Such a simple solution.
Good points:
i.	Located in in the city center.
ii.	The city is nice
iii.	People are friendly.
