Certainly not 4 beds and you need to read the contract first. Some are also scams and with others prices might be confusing.

I had a go at fishing when I was about 6 years old and got bored in 10 minutes. I like a bit more excitement in my life and pay just a bit more rental for the pleasure.

And you know that girona is pretty much the most expensive part of catalonia which in turn is the most expensive part of mainland Spain. So you could probably get cheaper down south. Yes if you move closer to the sea might be more expensive but you can always jump in the car and drive to the coast. And with the massive lack of tourists now you can pick a right bargain hotel pretty much anywhere in Spain at the moment.

Re: Where is everyone?

As this thread has become a petty squabble about the cost of housing and no longer fits the title I am closing it.
