It is an excellent location and we really enjoyed our visit to Barcelona but we were disappointed with our stay at this apartment. This was because our expectations were not met.
The check in wasn’t smooth. Late arrival from the host on a very wet evening.
We did not have enough fresh bed linen for everyone for the first night. I had emailed to confirm this twice before our stay. Our host checking us in, checked the cupboards and told us the linen was there. But when we went to make the bed up ourselves later- the duvet had no cover, there was no sheet and there was no linen for the travel cot. This was rectified the next day, but this is just not normal/acceptable for a stay at any hotel/apartment.
There was also a hole in the roof in the kitchen where the air conditioning leaks through the pipe onto the kitchen work surface. We were not pre-warned of this.
We were in the apartment at the back which does not have views onto the Main Street. It is sold as bright and airy apartment . The living room area is bright but the 2 bedrooms face onto an internal building wall. These are therefore very dark/no view.
We had booked the apartment for a really special, family occasion and unfortunately felt a bit disappointed.
