This was an excellent base for a short stay in Barcelona. There are 70 steps up to the apartment which might be a problem for anyone with infirmities. It is very well situated, about 5 mins walk from Parallel metro station and bus stop and there are many excellent restaurants and bars, as well as small supermarkets even closer. The communication before our trip was very good and Ivo, who greeted us was an excellent host and left an excellent guide to the immediate area with tips for restaurants, shops, etc. Thoroughly recommended as a good value air bnb.
