Everything was perfect with this Airbnb rental. The apartment was just as advertised and extremely clean on arrival and well-stocked with linens, soaps, and the necessities for a stay. The rental agency was very responsive to our inquiries in advance and kept in touch with us throughout the morning and early afternoon after we arrived in Barcelona to coordinate the check-in. When we arrived at check-in, someone was waiting for us and showed us right in. We had one adventure with the building elevator late on a Saturday night, and the agency picked up our call right away and coordinated with the building owners to take care of the issue within 30 minutes. (The elevator doesn't belong to the agency, of course, but they were a huge help in resolving what could have been a tense situation; in the end, it turned into a funny story to tell after the fact.)
The location couldn't be better. Literally across the street from the St. Antoni market and 200 feet from the St. Antoni Metro stop. The area is safe, lively, and a joy to wander around. Also, we were there in July - and while it wasn't historically hot in Barcelona it was plenty warm; the apartment air conditioner was a real blessing and more than up to the task! For certain, we will try to stay here next time we're in Barcelona.
