We enjoyed our stay at Rodolfo's apartment. It was comfortable, well located, and served us well. It was quiet and is on the second floor so not many steps to climb. It is one block to the metro and very convenient. If you walk right when you come out the door you come to a street with many restaurants and food markets right there. Also one of the leading
Tapas bars mentioned in Lonely Planet is exactly across the tiny street from the apartment. The internet worked for my wife's iPhone and Nora made it happen for my Samsung Android phone also. The large Avenue called Parallel is one block away also and you are close to the harbor. At the Metro station you can take the funicular up the hill to Montjuic, which is a very pleasant place to visit. The apartment had everything we needed including an iron. The bathroom is small and the shower is quite small but they were serviceable.
