Pros:
Cheap price for Barcelona and a stone's throw away to a train station (Maragall station). If you prefer a quieter neighborhood, go to this area. Antuan was punctual when he met me at the station. I had my own keys so I was free to come and go to explore Barcelona.
Cons:
You need to always take the train to get to the tourist spots like Las Ramblas and Sagrada Familia (tip: buy the Barcelona Passes depending on your length of stay). The bedroom is fine but the bathroom needs to be cleaned more frequently. I felt uncomfortable during my stay because the wife keeps watching my every move, making sure I always close the doors and leave the bathroom as is. (Tip: do not move or touch anything in the bathroom because she will not be too happy if you displace, say, the bathroom rug).
Summary: If I am to visit Barcelona again, I would shell out a couple more euros to get a more comfortable place that is in better proximity to the center.
