Gorgeous location - the VRBO picture is from the living room overlooking the promenade. Every room has a Juliet balcony. Bedrooms - wood indoor shutters for full black out, /- noise cancelling. Linens: fitted, but not flat sheet. Extra blankets. Good towels. Finishes in bathrooms/kitchen are mid-century. Kitchen: ample dishware, no microwave, and just salt, pepper, sugar, and olive oil in pantry. French press, e-kettle. Groceries and ice within a block on Plaza Espana, open 830 am - 10 pm. Be aware - the nightlife is very active until 1am (people noise, not loud music). Outdoor sitting area is great for the street musicians and people watching.The only difficulty we had was check-in/communication. 1. they didn't contact us through the VRBO app. They tried WhatsApp and email. And we had different people trying us simultaneously (Reuben, also Caroline (?) - they didn't seem to be in contact with each other and we were anxious about whether contacts were legitimate. 2. charged 25-50 euros in cash for checking in after business hours, depending how late the arrival - and said that we had been emailed this info after we booked (but we couldn't find it or confirm). 3. we wandered trying to find them to check in. Ask for a landmark to meet, like front of the church which is visible from their balcony. 4. they wanted, but didn't mandate, in-person check-out.For access needs, there are stairs up to the outside door, but an elevator inside the building to get up to the flat.
