Stayed here with our three kids in a very hot August. One Air con thatworks amazing in the main room, the kitchen is fairly cool. But the bedrooms needed the fans it was 30 degrees outside. In my opinion appartment was just what we were after. Host were great and check-in was via an agent (late check in). Nice little balcony for the evening. Although expensive I think it is relevant for the area. Used TripAdvisor and some great tapas restaurants nearby as is a large supermarket. Also close to sagrida and gaudis house on Place de Gracia.
