Charming apartment near the beach

Si. Tal cual se la ve en las fotos

Great location, close to the beach, shops, bars and restaurants in Poblenou. Host was very accommodating with our request to drop off our luggage a few hours before the official check-in. Wifi worked well and the apartment was clean and functional.

The main issue was the surprise to discover on arrival that it was not a two-bedroom apartment as described on Booking.com, but a one bedroom apartment with a sofa bed in the living room. The description should be updated to reflect the reality. We received a lot of automated messages from the hosts prior to check in, sending us to their own website but mirrored in the chat on booking.com. Some of these messages asked for information we had already provided and generated some anxiety. Having said that, communication with the host prior to arrival was very good. Follow the advice and only answer the messages via booking.com! We thought that providing only one roll of toilet paper for three people for three nights was a bit stingy, and be aware that you will need to buy all other essentials such as salt, coffee, sugar and oil etc. Finally, it was inconvenient only having one set of keys as we had different schedules, but accept that we didn't ask for a second set.
