This flat is very good value for money and positioned well to be able to visit by foot many different areas of Barcelona. We were literally walking in different directions every day and never needed to take public transport.
The area in itself is not of great interest, but we were 10mn by foot from the Casa Batllo and shopping street, 15mn from Gothic quarter, 20mn from Gracia, 30mn from the Sagrada Familia, so all this was really good.
Quim was great communicator throughout leading to the booking. I really appreciated this as we were meeting up with member of my family who are not used to travelling, and required a little extra help with finding the accommodation and had a few issues with sorting out upload of paperwork that Quim sorted out quickly.
Quim also allowed for an early check in to be able to drop luggage early (the cleaning was still being done, but it was really useful to not have luggage with us for the afternoon).
The flat in itself is fine maybe a bit noisy in the living room at rush hour, but this did not disturb us.
It is not pristine, there are a few areas that need updating or maybe need mentioning in an inventory upon arrival, for clarity.
One bedroom is blind (no window), but it is not a huge issue I think, if you don't mind leaving the door ajar, of it his type of thing does not bother you. We just had not realised upon booking.
The other leads to the terrace and is roomy, and finally the bedroom with the 2x single beds is next to this. Worth noting that the single beds are really slim, so best for children rather than young adults sharing.
The largest bathroom work really well. The smaller one is a welcome addition (2x toilets in the whole flat), but we decided to all shower in the main bathroom as the shower cubicle in the 2nd bathroom was a bit small and tricky to use. Again, maybe more usable for children.
In general, the flat was clean on arrival, with the exception of one bedroom where it looked like the floors had not been cleaned. We are thinking this might simply be a mistake.
There is a washing machine on the terrace (behind a door) and a dryer as well, which is useful to dry towels provided.
We loved making our own fresh orange juice with the juicer provided.
All in all, we think the flat is good value for money in this city. It is definitely a rental flat and it feels like it (ie. a little cold in the decor of the bedrooms and maybe a bit practical), but this did not bother us.
I would recommend this place with the above comments in mind.
