Good news first. Marisa is a very lively and funny lady who speaks very loud Spanish and not a word English. A true caracter. (A woman named Isabel apears to be the one who communicates over the phone and via the Airbnb platform). Marisa awaits guests together with her daughter upon arrival and shows them around. Her appartment is at an excellent location to explore all the highlights of this great city. There are quite a few ‘buts’ though... especially considering the high price that we paid.
*Beds, matrasses and pillows are all very old and worn out. Also the towels: very hard and stained. Everything was a bit smelly as well.
* The street is constantly jammed with busses and traffic, so even if its really hot you cannot sleep with the windows open, because of the loud street noises.
* The interior of the apartment feels a bit as if you are sleeping at your grandmothers house. Everything is out of date and layered with napkins and paper; even the salon table and the interior of the fridge.
*There is personal stuff everywhere; in closets, drawers, on tables, on the countertop and in bowls throughout the house: earplugs, perfume samples, adult diapers, dice, elastic bands, cracked peaces of dry soap, carton boxes, plasic bags, sponges, etc etc.
*The fourth bed is a foldable bed but askew and not very sturdy. We took turns for a bad night in this bed...
Our family of four had a great time in San Seb and as experienced world travellers we did not really mind all mentioned above... but I do mind that we had to pay 230 euro per night for it. Price-quality in this appartment is very much out of balance in my opinion.
