Joan and his team are very kind and nice folks. Every message was answered instantly and they provided us very useful and exhaustive information on Barcelona. Generally our experience with the apartment was good. It is located pretty close to the subway and the Sagrada Familia. Grocery stores, bakeries, cafés and bars are around the corner. The price/performance-ratio was convincing, it was clean and it even had two balconies, WiFi and a Smart TV. We were happy to find a washer and a laundry dryer in the bathroom. A lot of things one needs could be found in the apartment. But we were also faced with a few things which could have been better. For example there was no dish towel to dry wet dishes. We used paper towels instead and produced some unnecessary waste. Besides the kitchen was under-equipped with dishes: not enough plates and cups especially if one has no dish towel. The sofa was a little worn-out so that it was quite uncomfortable to lounge on it and the bed was squeaky on small movements. But beside these few things everything was fine and we can recommend Joan's apartment. Thanks for a nice stay in one of the world's most beautiful cities!
