ALEGRIA
4 May 2026
Liked: Cleanliness, communication
Pros:
* Amazing location, really convenient
* Flat is fully equipped with everything you need
* Very clean and modern overall
* Emilio (the landlord) is super helpful, polite, and replies quickly
* There’s a dehumidifier that works well and collects water fast.
Cons:
* Some things are broken, like the hairdryer which overheats after 5 minutes and turns off
* Strong perfume smell when we arrived that gave us a headache
* Automatic air freshener goes off every 15 minutes and you can’t control it easily
* Caused discomfort (dry throat, breathing issues for my boyfriend with asthma/allergies)
* Humidity issue in the flat
* Very little natural light
* Door/window is at street level so you can see people walking past
* A few scratches on the walls (not major, barely noticeable)
This is a fantastic place-very clean and fully equipped. The front room can hear the sometimes noisy street crowd but it is fine in the back bedroom with the door closed. The bathroom is a bit small but clean and modern with plenty of hot water. There is a washer/dryer and dishwasher. You are just a few steps from a large 24 hr. Grocery store and the Lavapies metro. The neighborhood is a little sketchy but not dangerous. Our host was always available for questions. Book it!
