Overall this apartment is very lovey and in the centrally located Garcia part of Barcelona.
Pros:
- good location
- close to destinations and restaurants and bars
- elevator lift
- air conditioning
- washer/dryer in unit
- kitchen
- close to public transport
Cons:
- unit was furnished with very basic IKEA furniture (I have nothing against ikea but some items should be higher quality)
- the AC in the living area doesn’t cool down the bedrooms when it’s very hot out
- both bedrooms are very small. Only fit bed, nightstands and wardrobe.
- the second bedroom is a tiny windowless room that gets extremely hot. Thankfully we didn’t use it during our stay but I can’t imagine having anyone sleep there If it’s hot out
We booked this unit last minute during peak travel season when our other accommodation fell through. That being said, I was very grateful this unit was available. However to describe this as a “penthouse” unit is an overuse of that word.
This is a nice top floor flat, that has basic furnishings, in a nice part of town. It also offers a washer dryer, AC and an elevator which are often rare in this part of town.
Overall it was a pleasant last minute stay. That being said, I cant say I’d book this unit again or that it stood out.
