Mario's apartment was centrally located in the exiample district right on la rambla d catelunea but with the internal court yard location it was very quiet. The kitchen was adequately equipped for simple breakfast or lunch preparation (bring your own salt and pepper). The apartment has a few quirks such as sticky doors, but nothing that would stop me from renting it again.
The apartment is modern and clean and all appliances and most importantly, the air conditioning worked perfectly.
