The location was good. A 10-15 minute walk to La Rambla and downtown . There is a Metro stop within a 5 minute walk. Great restaurants close by. The wifi did not work for our entire stay which had a big impact on our visit to Barcelona. The host suggested we buy a data card and he would pay us back (unclear on how we would be paid back). As we have never bought a data card, are not tech savy and do not read or speak Spanish we did not use this option. I believe the better option would have been for the host to pay for and bring a data card and help us set it up and make sure we were set up properly. The air conditioning unit did not work properly and did not cool the air to a comfortable temperature making it very warm for sleeping .
