The apartment is beautiful, it appears just as pictured. The bed was comfy although the pillows were rocks. The view is amazing and the location is great, however a little bit farther out than some may want, but it’s a quiet neighborhood. There is a nightclub across the street and they pick up the garbage every night at 3am so it can be a bit noisy at night, but not intolerable.
This being my 4th trip to Barcelona, overall the place was great and I would stay again. They were very flexible with check-in, especially since our flight was cancelled and we ended up arriving the next day. Although I never really spoke with the same person twice since it is a company, everyone was very responsive and kind.
The only hiccup came at checkout, when one of the staff rudely knocked on the door and told us she had other guests outside who needed to enter. This was obviously a complete lie since the cleaning crew hadn’t even come through yet. Checkout was at 11am and we left the apartment at 11:11am to find the same woman on the street waiting and glaring at us to ensure we left—no other guests in sight waiting to enter. I understand it is a business and checkout should be prompt, but she could have had a better attitude and a little more finesse. My advice to you is leave at 10:59am and not a minute later!
But other than that, a truly wonderful experience. Barcelona is our second home and we will be back!
