Full review to come below
Cons:
Lack of a stable internet connection from day 1, due to Router extension
Very slow internet connection ranging from .08MBPS to 54MBPS 1 time, averaging about 6.3MBPS
No bathroom garbage can
The half shower caused a lot of water to spill onto the floor
Only place in Spain that does not have Persianas, leading it to become bright throughout the day. No blinds to cover up any light that comes through window.
Constant cockroach issue, no matter how well we cleaned daily. They would crawl all over the silverware, walls, floor as there are giant cracks throughout the ceiling.
A big drain fly infestation that did not ever resolve, no matter how hard we tried.
Big cracks on the door seals to the exterior patio
Broken door handle, that caused us to be stuck outside the airbnb, as the handle came apart, that was never fixed, even though we were told it would be fixed the following working week.
Pros:
Air Conditioning worked well
Great location to explore the city, and close to several grocery stores, as well as a cab stand
Quiet neighborhood
Perfect size for 2
This airbnb is ultimately one I would actually not recommend. The stay was for 2 months for 2 people. The kitchen is adequate, though there will not be an oven. The bed and couch were OK on comfort, pillows could be better.
A/C worked good, the issue is there are a lot of cracks in the airbnb that let warm air in, and cold air out, as well as critters. A constant flow of giant cockroaches, drain flies and ants. Even with traps, sprays, and daily cleaning, it did not get better. Cracks are pretty big in the ceiling as well, a professional exterminator would be needed, as well as regular intervention.
There was no garbage can in the bathroom, we had to source our own. The shower only has the Half glass wall option, so there will be a decent amount of water spilled onto the floor. There is good lighting in the bathroom as well as enough plugs for shavers, hair dryer, curling iron, etc.
There was no blinds or even persianas for the window of this Airbnb, allowing sunlight to come in at all times of the day, which is not for at 6 AM, nor is it good for that 3PM Siesta.
There was an inconsistent internet connection from day 1 when the router extender did not function, as it was not set up properly. I had to correctly set it. From then on, connection was not at all reliable, sometimes going out a dozen times a day, to maybe 2-3 times per day. The speed was not all good either. The slowest I saw was .08MBPS download and .04MBPS upload. The best was 54MBPS download, and 45MBPS upload. The average for the 2 months was 6.3MBPS download, and 5.8MBPS upload.
The biggest thing for us was not the bugs, the horrible internet connection, or the lack of blinds. It was the fact that we were locked out of the airbnb. The host knew about the interior door handle being broken. It would just come apart. His remedy was to use silicone. Well the silicone wore out one day, and we couldn't get in. Host attempted to kick in the doors, which did not work, and I had to manipulate the lock, and open it with a knife. He told me he would call a locksmith, but then said it was too expensive as it was a Friday at 9 PM. We agreed to have him call on Monday to get it replaced. This was never to be done. 7 weeks went by, and nothing. A bottle of silicone showed up, and was told to use it to fix the door handle. This level of accountability is unacceptable.
