We all enjoyed this trip and had a great time. Apartment was exactly as listed and ideal - the host has clearly noted some earlier visitor suggestions too (as now there was a handy pack with washing up type things, hairdryer etc etc). The location is just perfect for anyone wanting to visit all the classic sites. The local restaurant recommends also great - some fantastic tapas consumed. Some loud daytime noise due to local renovation (as there is all over Barcelona) - we didn't care really as it just meant time to leave and hit St Gloria (fantastic breakfast 1 minute from the apartment) - but migh annoy if you planned to stay in all day (why would you though?) . All in all, highly recommended.
