I was in Barcelona for work (conference) and had a lot of work to do in my room as well, the room was very good for that as it has a side room with a desk and good wi-fi. The location is great, in a relaxed neighbourhood with a park and the Ramblas easily within reach by 3 metro stations nearby and bike. The appartment is clean, but does get hot despite a ventilator. I found it pricey for a room with a shared bathroom, but the location does matter I guess. Reception by the host was fine, and she was available in case of questions.
