Joan is a great host- he put us in contact with a charming taxi driver to pick us up at airport and was there to meet us at the flat. He was very efficient, knows a lot about the area and was available if we needed him during our stay. They apartment is in a great location, 5 mins from Tetuan metro or buses in St Joan street. Loads of cafes, bars, supermarkets, bakeries, fruit-shops etc nearby. Sagrada Familia and Arc de Triumf are walkable (20mins). The flat is a bit small for six people I think but was OK for four of us. "Queues may build up at peak times" as there is only one combined toilet/shower/bathroom. But if you have a rota you should be OK. Shower was large and powerful. Kitchen is smallish but adequate. The washing machine on the internal balcony was useful. The external balcony overlooks the street and was good for breakfasting or drinks in evening. The aricon worked and kept living room and two of the three bedrooms cool.
