Location - excellent, close to the Alameda de Hercules. Some very fine restaurants in the area, including Enslava which needs to be booked well in advance.
Hot Water: Enough for one shower, provided you did not wash your hair. No hot water in the kitchen.
Appearance: stripping behind the stove warped. stripping under the stove loose. Chunks of formica missing from the bar and the stove. burnt area by the stove covered with a cork mat. There appeared to be a bunch of dead plants on the terrace, which were unsightly and should have been removed.
A/C: not adequate, especially for the bedroom, which was tolerable only because the windows opened. Mid summer - no way.
Shower door: two sections of the door came off, when we first went to close it. Has to be mended. Could actually hurt someone.
Supplies. Having rented out my home on Homeaway, and having rented from Airbnb, I have an idea about how things should be. There should have been a bottle of water, coffee, a real coffee maker tea, sugar and perhaps some cookies, so that the first morning would be taken care of. There was very strong English tea left by someone and nescafe. The coffee make was one of the old boil the water espresso makers. There should be a drip coffee maker or a pod machine. The flowers were a nice touch.
Bed: the double pillow was a problem.
Management company: once the renter has made contact with the management company (SeBrilla), the owner should stay out of it. When both are answering questions it is very confusing. E.g. owner stated that we would be taking a taxi from the garage. SeBrilla said it was 100 meters. Management rep stood outside the apartment for 15 minutes, while I was waiting there. I did not think it was appropriate for me to be approaching a young lady on the street. As a professional, she should have asked me, she didn't, until after I called the company, and they called her. I got lost driving to the garage and walking from the garage to the apartment. The map showed the route from the bridge to the parking, not the apartment to the parking. The map was faded, and less than helpful, because it showed few street names and no one way streets.
