Gracia music festival takes place every year August 15-21. A stage is step up outside the door of this apartment. If you do not like music until 3am, do not stay here.
It was tricky getting a response from the owner. After booking the place, I read new reviews just to see what recent people wrote… I read some issues of cockroaches in the apartment. I reached out to the owner stating that it was a major concern of ours. The owner responded saying that the apartment had been exterminated and that the issue was taken care of. Sadly, there were still cockroaches in the apartment, it is possible they came through a window left open by housekeeping, however, not what you want to come home to. Coincidence or not, once the window was closed we didn’t see any more.
All in all the apartment was ok. Could use a bit of upkeep. The photos make it look better than it is, however the apartment layout was great.
The Gracia music festival happening while we were visiting. There was literally a stage outside of our door. It was loud as can be but the bedroom doors helped drown out the sound. Would have been nice for the owner to let us know that a music festival was taking place outside of our front door.
